What 앸 means
It is a syllable block; the surrounding Korean word gives it meaning. Romanized as aek, 앸 combines ㅇ at the start, ㅐ in the middle and final ㅋ. Those are its Hangul components; alone, the block does not identify a whole Korean word.
Hangeul is the Korean writing system created to write Korean. The earliest surviving record of its creation dates to 1443; the explanatory book Hunminjeongeum was completed in 1446. That date marks the book's completion, not a documented public launch. Earlier Korean writing used adaptations of Chinese characters, including Idu, Gugyeol and Hyangchal. Hangeul later appeared in Buddhist and Confucian books, practical print, private letters and official writing; it became Korea's national writing system in 1894.
What if someone sends 앸 alone?
By itself, it is an unexplained Korean syllable fragment. If someone sends 앸 alone, ask what Korean word or sentence it belongs to. Within a word, interpret the whole word; this block is only one syllable of it.
As a Hangul block, 앸 is neutral text; alone in a message, it is unclear without Korean context.
Do not read it as a reaction; ask which Korean word it belongs to.

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
