What 쵞 means
It writes one Korean syllable; context tells you what it means.
Hangul arranges its letters into blocks, typically one block per spoken syllable. In 쵞, ㅊ begins the block, ㅚ is the vowel, and ㄲ closes it. These parts show the syllable's sound structure; the surrounding Korean word or sentence identifies its meaning.
Why was Hangul created?
Hangul was designed to make writing Korean easier to learn.
Hangul appears in records from 1443. In 1446, Hunminjeongeum, a guide to the new writing system, explained it as a more accessible way to write Korean than through Chinese characters. Hangul became Korea's official script in 1894. After Japanese rule began in 1910, protecting Hangul also became part of protecting the Korean language.

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.
