What 첶 means
It spells one Korean syllable; a word supplies meaning.
첶 is built from three Korean jamo (letters): initial ㅊ, vowel ㅔ, and final ㄲ. The last jamo is its batchim, the consonant that closes the syllable block. “Cegg” labels this component sequence; it is not an English translation.
Hangul was designed so Korean could be written with its own letters instead of relying on Chinese characters, with letters grouped into syllable blocks. The first record of the script appears in the Sejong Sillok, a Korean royal chronicle, in 1443; an explanatory book followed in 1446.
How do I type 첶?
Use a Korean 2-set keyboard: C, P, then Shift+R.
On the Korean 2-set QWERTY layout, those keys produce ㅊ, ㅔ, and ㄲ in that order. If they stay separate, Korean input may be inactive or a different layout may be selected.
Why does 첶 look different or split into jamo?
A font draws the block; the IME composes its parts.
Different Korean fonts can draw the same syllable block with different strokes. While a Korean IME (input method) is composing text, it may show the jamo separately; Hangul text shaping arranges a composed syllable as a block.
Neutral in Korean writing. Sent alone, it gives too little context to decode the sender's intended meaning.

1Why does 첶 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.
