What 헖 means
A Hangul block built from ㅎ, ㅓ, and final ㄿ. The ㄿ in 헖 is a pair of final consonants, ㄹ ㅍ, called 겹받침 (a double final consonant) in Korean.
Hangul was designed as a learnable writing system for Korean, with consonants and vowels arranged in initial, middle, and sometimes final positions. Early Hangul manuals explain this design; over time, the script became part of everyday and official Korean writing. 헖 follows that structure.
How do I type 헖 on a Korean keyboard?
On a standard two-set Korean IME, type g j f v.
Those keys enter ㅎ ㅓ ㄹ ㅍ; the IME composes the last pair into ㄿ. If composition stops at 헑, that final cluster has not formed.
The joined sequence 헖 is another representation; NFC normalization (Unicode’s standard way to combine equivalent text) composes it as 헖. Fonts can vary the placement, shape, and size of parts inside the block without changing the character.

1Why does 헖 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.
