Text symbol

What 쀺 means

It spells one syllable, not a complete word. Its three jamo (Hangul letters) are ㅃ at the start, ㅟ in the middle and ㅍ at the end.

Hangul was devised in Korea's Joseon kingdom to write Korean speech. Unicode breaks this block into ᄈ ᅱ ᇁ; Hangul's jamo can also represent older Korean syllables.

A 1443 record marks Hangul's creation; the 1446 Hunminjeongeum book explains the script. A 1933 proposal set a unified Korean spelling standard. The vowel ㅟ was two-part before the 16th century and shifted toward one rounded vowel after the 17th. A 2013 guide describes pronunciation variation by region, generation and sound context, with both readings allowed in standard Korean.

Why does 쀺 show as a box on some devices?

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.
