What 벘 means
It is one Korean syllable block.
벘 is built from ㅂ, ㅓ, and ㅆ: an initial consonant, a vowel, and a final consonant jamo (Hangul letters). The block contributes one syllable; the surrounding Korean word supplies its meaning.
Hangul was designed to make Korean easier to write, especially for people poorly served by older Chinese-character-based writing practices. Idu, an earlier method that adapted Chinese characters to represent Korean, belongs to that historical setting. The script is first documented in 1443, and the Hunminjeongeum book explaining it was published in 1446. Hangul first coexisted with hanja, the Chinese characters used in Korean writing, and later became the standard script for Korean.
Neutral Korean writing; 벘 contributes a syllable to a word, whose meaning comes from the surrounding text.
If it arrives alone, ask which Korean word or phrase it belongs to before translating it.

1Why does 벘 look different from 벘?
They are equivalent forms of the same syllable: 벘 is a precomposed, one-character block, while 벘 spells it with three conjoining jamo. Some apps or fonts display those jamo separately when they do not shape them into one block. Use the one-character form when that appearance matters.
