Hangul syllable Bwak

봨 is one Hangul block for a Korean syllable, not a message on its own. Its visible shape varies by font; the character's identity does not.

Text symbol

What 봨 means

It represents one written Korean syllable.

Hangul is the Korean writing system. Its jamo, or component letters, are initial consonant ㅂ, vowel ㅘ and final consonant ㅋ.

Hangul was devised in 1443 to write Korean speech directly and widen access to literacy beyond Chinese-character writing, then used by educated readers. Its explanatory guide, Hunminjeongeum, was published in 1446. After 1446, Hangul spread through books and everyday literacy.

Why does 봨 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.
