What 껐 means
It means “turned off” inside 껐다.
Read 불 껐다 as “I turned off the lights.” The chain is 끄다 꺼 껐다, and 껐어 or 껐어요 keeps the finished action while softening the ending for chat or polite speech. A lone 껐 is that first syllable with its ending chopped off.
Hangul was first recorded in 1443, with Hunminjeongeum published in 1446 to write Korean directly rather than bending Chinese characters through Idu, Hyangchal, and Gugyeol alongside Hanja. It was invented, not evolved, then grew into the everyday script; that changed Hangul’s status, not this syllable’s job.
Neutral spelling; the ending you pick sets the politeness.
Sending 껐 alone can look cut off.

1Why does 껐 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.
