What 꺷 means
꺷 is one written Korean syllable made from three letters.
Hangul places an initial consonant, a vowel, and an optional final consonant in a compact block. In 꺷, the parts are the doubled initial ᄁ, vowel ᅤ, and final ᆾ. The block represents a Korean syllable; the surrounding word supplies its meaning.
Is 꺷 an old Hangul character?
No; it follows the modern Hangul syllable-block pattern.
Hangeul was created in 1443, and its principles were published in 1446 so Korean could be written by people who had not learned Chinese characters. Hangul groups the letters of each syllable together in a block.
Modern Korean spelling was based on a unified draft from 1933 and partly revised in 1988. Those reforms concern Korean spelling; 꺷 follows Hangul's consonant-and-vowel block pattern.

1Why does 꺷 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.
