What 춝 means
It is a Hangul block that spells one Korean syllable.
Hangul groups its letters into square blocks: this one has initial ㅊ, vowel ㅜ, and final cluster ㄺ. Unicode’s name CULG describes those parts rather than translating a Korean word. In a decomposed Unicode spelling, the same positions use ᄎ, ᅮ, and ᆰ.
Hangul’s early history predates this computer character. The first reference to Hunminjeongeum, the work behind Hangul, is dated to 1443; its explanatory book appeared in 1446. Hangul groups reusable consonant and vowel letters by spoken syllable, making Korean speech easier to write and learn. Those dates belong to the writing system and its guide, not to this exact encoded block.
How do I type 춝?
Use a Korean 2-set input method or enter the separated Jamo sequence.
A Korean input method (IME) combines the letters as you type: enter the keys for ㅊ, ㅜ, ㄹ, then ㄱ, and it forms the final cluster ㄺ. CULG is Unicode’s naming format, not a shortcut to type on a Latin keyboard.
An app that accepts conjoining Jamo can take 춝; NFC normalization recomposes that sequence into 춝. Fonts may draw the block differently because Unicode defines the character, not one mandatory outline. If a box appears, check whether the font supports the character.

1Why does 춝 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.
