About this, we have a few examples at present: a prefix ‘데-‘ and ‘되-‘, a verb ‘알아채다, 디밀다, 엎디다’, an exclamation ‘얼레꼴레’.

It has a limit in application environment. The foregoing vowel has no limit, but the behind vowel must be /i/. It is applied in the rapid utterance. It is applied by the glide [??] which is occurred between foregoing vowel and behind vowel /i/, because glide [??] collide with vowel /i/ in palatal feature.
