With 19 possible initial consonants, 21 possible medial (one- or two-letter) vowels, and 28 possible final consonants (of which one corresponds to the case of no final consonant), there are a total of {{math|1=19 × 21 × 28 = 11,172}} ''theoretically'' possible "Korean syllable letters" ({{Korean|hangul=글자|rr=geulja|lit=letter}}),<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.korean.go.kr/nkview/news/12/128.htm |script-title=ko:한글 자모의 배열 순서 |trans-title=The order of Korean alphabet |last=Lee |first=Sung-jae |work=[[National Institute of Korean Language]] |access-date=3 June 2025 |language=ko}}</ref> which are contiguously encoded in the 11,172 Unicode code points from U+AC00 (Decimal: {{Base|44,032|10}}) through U+D7A3 (Decimal: {{Base|55,203|10}}= 44,032 + 11,171) within the [[Hangul Syllables]] Unicode block. However, the majority of these theoretically possible syllables do not correspond to syllables found in actual Korean words or proper names.
