Usage notes
There was probably a nuanced difference in meaning between 금즉 (Yale: kumcuk) and ᄀᆞᆷᄌᆞᆨ (Yale: komcok), given the semantic contrasts apparent in their Modern Korean reflexes. However, 금즉 (Yale: kumcuk) is attested only once in the surviving Middle Korean corpus, so this cannot be said for sure.
