My understanding is most East Asian languages don't differentiate between L and R, or the sounds are not the same as in English. I've heard it before in the wild.
I used to live in south korea where they have this phoneme. The sound is midway between an r and an l. It’s similar to the way spanish pronounces v and b the same way with a sound midway between the two.
Yea, it's this letter, ㄹ. Sometimes it's more L, sometimes more R.
