What 축 means

Read the whole word. The syllable 축 in 축하 and 축복 carries a congratulating or blessing sense; in 축구, it is part of the word for soccer.

Bare, it has no fixed translation.

Hangul groups letters into syllable blocks

Hangul was created in 1443; its guidebook, Hunminjeongeum, appeared in 1446. Earlier systems—Idu, Gugyeol, and Hyangchal—adapted Chinese characters to write Korean sounds or grammar. Hangul letters form syllable blocks.

Fonts may shift letters within the block.

Neutral syllable; the word sets the tone.

A bare 축 does not mean “congratulations.”

Why does 축 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.
