What 꿩 means
It names a pheasant; context supplies the extra meaning.
The Korean word behind 꿩 has a clear 꿩 origin: a fifteenth-century form, skweng, grew into the modern pheasant word, and older writing used 雉 as its Hanja gloss. Copy it from the palette above when you need this exact Hangul syllable.
Its everyday anchor was dinner on legs, a hunted game bird. Joseon-period records link pheasants to royal ancestral rites, and in traditional Korean usage the bird flew into proverbs, songs, stories, and theater.
Neutral noun; alone, it reads like a dictionary word, not a reaction.

1Why does 꿩 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.
