In phonetics, aspiration is the strong burst of breath that accompanies either the release or, in the case of preaspiration, the closure of some obstruents.In English, aspirated consonants are allophones in complementary distribution with their unaspirated counterparts, but in some other languages, notably most South Asian languages and East Asian languages, the difference is contrastive.
Pulmonic consonant letters are arranged singly or in pairs of voiceless and voiced sounds, with these then grouped in columns from front (labial) sounds on the left to back (glottal) sounds on the right.

Hangul jamo characters in Unicode. Hangul Jamo (Korean: 한글 자모, Korean pronunciation: [ˈha̠ːnɡɯɭ t͡ɕa̠mo̞]) is a Unicode block containing positional (choseong, jungseong, and jongseong) forms of the Hangul consonant and vowel clusters.
