What 꾘 means
꾘 is one Korean syllable, with no settled meaning by itself. Its three jamo—ㄲ, ㅚ, and ㅋ—are Hangul letters that combine to form the block. The romanized label “ggoek” describes that construction; it is not a translation of a Korean word.
Hangul's first official record dates to 1443; the 1446 book Hunminjeongeum explains the script's sounds and how syllable blocks are formed. The writing system was made to represent Korean speech. It was also called Hunminjeongeum, jeongeum, eonmun, and gukmun before Hangeul became its widely used name.
꾘 font: why does it look different?
The same syllable can appear as a block or separate letters. Korean text can store 꾘 as one precomposed block or as its equivalent jamo sequence. An input method may show the parts while composing; a font without support may show a missing-glyph box. These display changes do not alter the intended syllable.
Neutral Hangul text; by itself, it needs Korean word context for a clear reading.

Questions people ask
1Why did 꾘 split into jamo?
The IME may still be composing the block, or the text may be stored as its decomposed jamo sequence. Finish composition; if software needs one precomposed syllable, normalize the text to NFC, Unicode's composed form.
