What 꺃 means
It is Korean text, not an emoji.
Hangul packs its component letters, called jamo, into one block: ㄲ starts this syllable, ㅐ is its vowel, and ㅎ closes it. 꺃 belongs inside a Korean word or sentence; it does not spell out a complete message by itself.
Hangul was devised under King Sejong in 1443 to make Korean easier to write than with Chinese characters; an explanatory publication appeared in 1446. Buddhist scriptures and then books of Confucian teaching helped carry the script outward. 꺃 was not invented as a separate sign; it follows Hangul's pattern of joining consonant and vowel letters in a syllable block.
A lone Hangul syllable does not settle a sender's tone; the surrounding Korean words do.
If it arrives alone, ask for context before reading a tone or reaction into it.

1Why does 꺃 look different in another font?
It can. This is text, so the active Hangul font sets its stroke shapes and proportions; a changed outline does not make it a different character.
