Where does this syllable's writing system come from?

Its background is the history of Hangul.

Hangul was completed in 1443. The Hunminjeongeum, a manual explaining the new letters, appeared in 1446. Hangul was designed to represent Korean speech so people could express themselves in writing.

South Korea commonly calls the script Hangul; North Korea commonly calls it Chosŏn’gŭl. Unicode also represents older Korean syllables with jamo, the individual letters that combine into blocks.
