What 방 means
The phrase tells you which word is meant. Korean dictionaries distinguish 방 (房), “room,” from 방 (放), a counter for shots, blows, photographs or farts. In 한 방 먹었어, it means a hit.
Hangul was designed to make Korean easier to write than older methods that adapted Chinese characters to write Korean, including Idu, Gugyeol and Hyangchal. Hangul’s invention is dated to 1443; the 1446 Hunminjeongeum text sets out its principles.
Neutral Korean text; the phrase supplies the tone.
Don't assume every 방 means “room.”
