Hangul Syllable Gwaelb

292/11172

괣 is a Hangul syllable block made from the Korean letters ㄱ, ㅙ and ㄼ; as of 2026, it has no established standalone dictionary meaning. Hangul was created in 1443 to write Korean and introduced with Hunminjeongeum, a guide to the script, in 1446. A Korean spelling proposal from 1933 was partly revised in 1988. Unicode also represents the block's parts separately as 괣.

Why does 괣 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.
