Text symbol

What 꿋 means

The full word carries the meaning. 꿋꿋하다 means strong, firm, or solid; 꿋 alone does not carry that definition.

꼿꼿하다 is its vowel-harmony counterpart: Korean changes the vowel, while the paired word keeps a similar firm, upright sense.

Korea’s King Sejong created Hangul, the Korean writing system, in 1443 under the name Hunminjeongeum (“Proper Sounds to Instruct the People”). A guide from 1446 explains how letters combine into syllable blocks. These dates belong to the script, not 꿋 specifically.

How do I type 꿋?

A Korean keyboard composes 꿋 from three letters. Type ㄲ ㅜ ㅅ; the input method joins them as 꿋. Pasting the pieces as ㄲㅜㅅ leaves three characters instead of one syllable block.

Why does 꿋 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.
