What 휮 means
It is a Korean syllable, not a word by itself. Hangul groups an initial consonant and vowel, sometimes a final consonant, into one syllable block. Here the parts are ㅎ, ㅟ, and ㅈ.
Hangul's 28 letters were devised in 1443; Hunminjeongeum, a guide to the alphabet, was completed in 1446, though the chronology is debated. The alphabet was designed for Korean speech and wider access to writing. The older Korean encoding standard KS X 1001 partly shaped Unicode's Hangul blocks.
Technical: one Hangul syllable block.
