What 읒 means
It is a Hangul syllable block built from three Korean letters. It combines ㅇ + ㅡ + ㅈ; ㅈ sits below the vowel as the final consonant, called 받침.
Hangul was devised under King Sejong to write Korean speech more directly, since Chinese characters did not map neatly to Korean sounds and grammar. The Sejong Annals, a court chronicle, record a creation notice in 1443; an explanatory book followed in 1446. A 1527 text records a one-syllable name for ㅈ; naming proposals in the early 20th century led to the two-syllable form 지읒.
In 지읒, 읒 is the second syllable of the Korean name for ㅈ. When a word ending that starts with a vowel follows, this final consonant can link into the next syllable in speech.
In Korean writing it is neutral; by itself, it reads as a fragment rather than a complete word.

1Why does 읒 look different in another font?
Font design changes the outline. Hangul can be stored as one block or as the separate letters ㅇ + ㅡ + ㅈ; software with Hangul shaping displays the separate sequence as a syllable block.
