What 볝 means
It spells one Korean syllable with three Hangul letters.
Hangul letters join inside a square block. Separated, 볝 is ᄇ + ᅨ + ᆬ: an initial consonant, a vowel, and a final consonant pair.
King Sejong devised Hangul in 1443 to make Korean easier to write; a guide appeared in 1446. Earlier, Chinese characters were also used to write Korean.
