GB 12052-89, entitled Korean character coded character set for information interchange (Chinese: 信息交换用朝鲜文字编码字符集), is a Korean-language character set standard established by China. It consists of a total of 5,979 characters, and has no relationship nor compatibility with South Korea's KS X 1001 and North Korea's KPS 9566.

Characters

Characters in GB 12052 are arranged in a 94×94 grid (as in ISO/IEC 2022), and the two-byte code point of each character is expressed in the qu-wei form, which specifies a row (qu 区) and the position of the character within the row (cell, wei 位).

The rows (numbered from 1 to 94) contain characters as follows:[1][2]

  • 01–09: identical to GB 2312, except 03-04 (¥ in GB 2312, $ in GB 12052)
  • 16–37: modern hangul syllables and jamo, level 1 (2,017 syllables and 51 jamo)
  • 38–52: modern hangul syllables, level 2 (1,356 characters)
  • 53–72: archaic hangul syllables and jamo (1,683 syllables and 96 jamo), and 94 Chinese characters

The rows 10–15 and 73–94 are unassigned.

Errors

There are some errors in the standard:[3]

  • 41-64: 믃 in the fold-out table, 믌 in the standard proper – should be 믃
  • 46-65: 틘 in the fold-out table, 퇸 in the standard proper – should be 틘
  • 49-37: 뗸 in the fold-out table, 뎬 in the standard proper – should be 뗸
  • 51-82: 윹 in the fold-out table, 율 in the standard proper – should be 윹
  • 53-67: ᄀᆈ in the fold-out table, missing in the standard proper – should be ᄀᆈ
  • 72-88: missing in the fold-out table, 夞 in the standard proper – should be 夞

Footnotes

  1. Although a very small number of hanja which are absent from GB 12345 are included in GB 12052, supporting an appreciable number of hanja would require an encoding combining GB 12052 and GB 12345.
  2. Missing Greek diacritics and final sigma.
  3. Kana only; missing chōonpu.
