What 꿌 means
Its meaning depends on the Korean word it belongs to.
꿌 combines ㄲ, ㅜ and final ㅆ. “Gguss” is a romanized name for the syllable, not an English gloss; standing alone, the block does not identify a word.
Hangul’s history gives the context: King Sejong created Hangeul in 1443, and a book published in 1446 explained its purpose and principles. It gave Korean readers a way to write their language without relying on Chinese characters or systems that adapted them for Korean, including Idu, Gugyeol and Hyangchal. Among early Hangeul publications were Buddhist scriptures; later Confucian texts also used Hangeul. Unicode treats the precomposed block and its sequence of jamo—the letters that build a Hangul syllable—as equivalent representations.
How do I type 꿌?
Use a Korean IME and enter ㄲ, ㅜ, then ㅆ.
On Dubeolsik, the standard Korean keyboard layout, press ShiftR, N, then ShiftT for ㄲ, ㅜ and ㅆ. A Korean input method editor (IME) joins them into one syllable block as you type; entering the parts out of order will not produce 꿌. Other Korean keyboard layouts may assign different keys, but the IME still combines an initial consonant, vowel and final consonant in that order.
As Korean text, it is neutral; alone, it reads as an unexplained syllable rather than a chat reaction.
Without a surrounding Korean word, treat it as a syllable fragment, not a reaction.

1Why can 꿌 look different across fonts?
It can: fonts draw the component jamo with different shapes, while the underlying syllable composition stays the same.
