ㅇ(Korean: 이응, romanized: ieung) is a consonant letter of the Korean alphabet, Hangul. The Unicode for ㅇ is U+3147. It is silent when used at the beginning of a syllable (it is a consonant placeholder in vowel letters). However, when ㅇ is used at the beginning of a sentence or after a long pause, it takes on the glottal stop ʔ sound[citation needed]. And it takes on the [ŋ] sound when it is the ending consonant in a syllable.[1][2][3]
