What 뒤 means
It can mark either space or time; context decides.
뒤에 can mean “behind” or “afterward”; 뒤로 can mean “backward” or “later.” Idioms can refer to support from behind, what follows an event, or lingering resentment.
What was the older spelling of 뒤?
A 1447 poem records the earlier form: 뒿〯.
용비어천가 is a Korean royal praise poem. Hangul was devised in 1443 and promulgated in 1446 to make Korean easier to read. Before it, writers adapted Chinese characters to write Korean through systems such as Idu (이두), Hyangchal (향찰), and Gugyeol (구결).

1Why does 뒤 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.
