What 볷 means

볷 is one Korean syllable; its word meaning needs context.

Hangul is the Korean alphabet. Its blocks place an initial consonant, a vowel, and sometimes a final consonant together as one syllable; neighboring blocks show which word it belongs to.

Hangul’s creation was recorded in 1443; a guide to the script, Hunminjeongeum, was published in 1446. The alphabet was designed to represent Korean speech.

Why does 볷 resemble a Chinese character?

The square layout resembles Chinese characters, but Hangul blocks follow an alphabet.

Hangul packs alphabet letters into a square syllable block. Unicode describes the block shapes as not directly influenced by Chinese characters; the resemblance is in the layout.
