What 뗹 means
It has no established standalone meaning. In Korean text, 뗹 is one syllable block; Korean words are spelled by grouping such blocks.
Hangul was developed in 15th-century Korea to write Korean speech with a systematic alphabet. Its earliest official record is dated 1443; the explanatory book titled 훈민정음 was published in 1446. Korean writing had long used Chinese characters, known as Hanja in Korean; that is a separate script, not a source of hidden meaning inside this block.
Why is 뗹 written as one block?
Hangul groups each syllable’s letters into a square.
The three letters that form 뗹 are ᄄ (initial consonant), ᅨ (vowel), and ᆼ (final consonant). Fonts can arrange these same parts differently inside the square, changing their outlines without changing the character.

1Why does 뗹 look different in different fonts?
Font design. Hangul letters are arranged inside a square syllable cell, so their outlines and spacing can vary while the character stays the same.
