What 궢 means
It contributes one syllable; the surrounding word gives the meaning.
Its jamo (letters that join into blocks) are initial ᄀ, vowel ᅯ, and final ᇁ.
Hangul was created in 1443 and officially introduced in 1446 to write Korean more directly. Idu, a method using Chinese characters to write Korean, was one older practice. Elite formal writing stayed tied to Chinese for a time; women used Hangul for letters, translations, poetry, and practical books.

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.
