What ퟺ means
It is a historical Hangul syllable ending.
The name joins two Hangul consonant signs, phieuph and sios, in jongseong: the position at the end of a syllable. A jamo is one of Hangul's written building blocks; this one is part of an older spelling, not a word on its own.
Hangul was created in the 15th century to make writing Korean easier than using Chinese characters. Hunminjeongeum, the work that describes the alphabet, explains how consonants and vowels fill leading, middle, and final positions in a syllable. This character belongs to that final-position tradition of writing older Korean.
Why does ퟺ render as a box?
A font or app may not support Old Hangul shaping.
As a trailing jamo, ퟺ belongs after the leading consonant and vowel, where the renderer places it at the bottom of the syllable. Some historical syllable sequences have no single precomposed character, so software must shape their pieces together.
As of 2026, support for conjoining Old Hangul jamo still varies by app. A box, detached piece, or misalignment points to rendering support; it does not change the underlying character.
How to type ퟺ?
Modern Korean keyboard layouts may not include historical jamo. Microsoft's 2024 documentation describes a separate Old Hangul IME that composes historical jamo into syllable blocks; the National Institute of Korean Language also provides an Old Hangul inputter.
For a historical syllable, enter its leading consonant and vowel before this final cluster so the input method can place it at the bottom.
Historical and technical; it points to Old Hangul text or character handling, not ordinary modern Korean conversation.

Questions people ask
1Why does ퟺ show as a box on some devices?
Not every system ships a font for the Hangul Jamo Extended-B block. Where none is installed, the character shows as an empty box; adding a font such as Noto fixes it. The character itself is still correct and copies correctly.
