What 혟 means
It is one Hangul syllable block with a final consonant cluster. It combines initial consonant ㅎ, vowel ㅖ, and final ㄳ. In Korean, the final consonant is called batchim; a two-consonant batchim such as ㄳ is a 겹받침. These jamo—the letter components of Hangul—fit together as one written syllable.
Hangul was developed under King Sejong to make Korean easier to write than with Chinese characters. The syllable-block design was recorded in 1443; the explanatory guide Hunminjeongeum was published in 1446.
Modern Korean spelling follows the unified proposal of 1933, partly revised in 1988. The script is commonly called Hangul in South Korea and Choseongul in North Korea; Jeongeum is a less country-specific name.
How do you type 혟?
Use a Korean IME to enter the three jamo in order. Enter ㅎ, ㅖ, then ㄳ in a Korean input method that composes modern Hangul. An input path that leaves compatibility jamo separate produces a different sequence of characters.
Why does 혟 look different across fonts?
Fonts can change the components’ shape, position, and size. The underlying character stays the same. If it appears as an empty box, the font may not contain a glyph for this block.
Neutral in Korean spelling; read it as one syllable within the surrounding word.

1Why does 혟 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.
