Text symbol

What 궙 means

Three Hangul letters form this syllable block. 궙 breaks into ᄀ (initial consonant), ᅯ (vowel), and ᆸ (final consonant).

Unicode can also store it as 궙. A search comparing raw text may miss a match if software has not standardized the equivalent forms.

Hangul answered a Korean writing problem

Before Hangul, Korean writers adapted Chinese characters through Idu, Gugyeol, and Hyangchal. These methods made reading and writing difficult.

King Sejong created Hangul in 1443. The 1446 book Hunminjeongeum explained its purpose and how letters form syllable blocks.

Why does 궙 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.
