What 具 means
It is the character 具. In Mandarin, 具 can mean “have,” “prepare,” or “equipment.” Japanese 道具 means “tool”; Korean hanja (Chinese characters used in Korean) reads 具 as 구 (gu), as in 도구 (“tool”). A poem by Meng Haoran, a poet of China’s Tang dynasty, uses 具 for “prepare”: 故人具雞黍 (“my friend prepared chicken and millet”).

具\2F811Why is 具 a box on my screen?
fsymbols draws rare signs with its own fonts, so they show here even where your device has none. An app or website without such a font shows an empty box (□) or a question mark instead. Turn our fonts off to see each sign as your device draws it by itself: a box here means a box in your chats and documents too.
