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 19 × 21 × 28 = 11,172 permutations of theoretically possible Korean syllable, which are contiguously encoded in the 11,172 Unicode code points from U+AC00 (decimal 44,032) through U+D7A3 (decimal 55,203 = 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 and/or proper names.)

Below are 19 tables of 28×21 syllables. All together there are 11,172 (19×21×28) possible syllables, found in the [[Hangul Syllables]] Unicode block (U+AC00–U+D7AF). These possible syllables are not ''all'' in use.
