What 첓 means
It is one written syllable; context tells you the word.
Initial ㅊ and vowel ㅒ sit side by side; final ㅊ sits below.
Hunminjeongeum, Hangul's original system, was announced in 1443; an explanatory book followed in 1446. It made Korean sounds and grammar easier to write and recorded Korean readings of Chinese characters. Idu, hyangchal, and gugyeol adapted Chinese characters for Korean writing. Eonmun was a dismissive name for the script; Hangeul appears in the early 1910s and was widely used by 1928.
Why does 첓 look different in fonts?
Font design can shift the parts' shape and spacing.
The vowel sits beside initial ㅊ and final ㅊ below. The same syllable may be stored as one precomposed block or as separate jamo (component letters).

1Why does 첓 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.
