What 꽂 means

It is a Korean verb stem about putting or sticking something in.

In 꽂다, the stem covers placing an object, fixing your gaze on something, or making an object land hard. 꽂히다 means being stuck; figuratively, it can mean getting absorbed in an interest.

Where does Hangul come from?

Hangul writes Korean in syllable blocks.

Hangul was devised in 1443 and explained in the 1446 Hunminjeongeum, a guide to its letters, so Korean could be written with a system designed for the language rather than through Chinese characters alone. It became Korea's official writing system in 1894.

Why does 꽂 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.
