What 휝 means
By itself, 휝 identifies one syllable, not the intended word. Its meaning depends on the Korean word or sentence it belongs to.
The Unicode name Hwinj describes the letters used to build the block; it is not a Korean translation.
Why does 휝 have this form?
Hangul groups consonant and vowel letters into syllable blocks. The first record naming Hunminjeongeum, the original name of Hangul, is dated 1443; an explanatory book about it was published in 1446.
Hangul was created to write Korean speech, with syllables arranged around initial, middle, and final sounds. Unicode stores 휝 as one precomposed character or as its three component letters, called jamo: 휝.
Neutral as Korean text; this syllable alone does not establish the writer's tone.
Read the surrounding Korean before deciding what the writer meant.

1Why does 휝 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.
