What 칗 means
칗 is one Hangul block for a Korean syllable. Its letters, called jamo, are ㅊ at the start, ㅣ as the vowel, and ㅎ at the end; the word around it gives the syllable its meaning. Unicode decomposes it as 칳; Hangul fonts may arrange the strokes differently. Created under King Sejong in 1443, Hangul made Korean easier to write than Chinese characters; the 1446 book Hunminjeongeum explained the alphabet.
Alone, 칗 reads like a sample of Korean writing.
In chat, a lone 칗 may look like a typo.

1Why does 칗 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.
