What 뿝 means
It is a Hangul syllable, not a reaction with a fixed meaning.
뿝 combines ᄈ (initial consonant), ᅮ (vowel), and ᆸ (final consonant). These parts are called jamo: Hangul letters arranged together to form a syllable block. The meaning comes from the Korean word containing it.
Hangul's creation is recorded in 1443, and a text explaining the writing system was published in 1446. It made Korean easier to write by arranging sound letters in initial, middle, and final positions; before Hangul, Korean writing relied heavily on Chinese characters, which were a poor fit for Korean speech.
What should I do if someone sends 뿝?
Ask for the Korean word or sentence around it.
Alone, it carries no reliable emoji-style message. Treat it as contextless Hangul text rather than guessing at slang; inside a word, let that word supply the meaning.
In a Korean word it is ordinary Hangul text; alone, it leaves the message unclear.
Don't treat a lone 뿝 as a complete reaction; ask what word or sentence it belongs to.

Questions people ask
1Why does 뿝 split into jamo?
It is a representation difference. Unicode can represent Hangul as one precomposed syllable or as the jamo sequence ᄈ ᅮ ᆸ; a Hangul-aware renderer can combine that sequence into the same block.
