What 혂 means
It represents one Korean syllable block.
혂 is built from the initial ㅎ, the vowel ㅕ, and final ㄲ. It contributes one syllable to a Korean word; the whole word tells you what that word means.
Hunminjeongeum, a guide to writing Korean published in 1446, describes the syllable-block system. The system groups letters into syllables to write Korean speech and was introduced to make writing more accessible to people who had not learned Chinese characters.
How do I type 혂 on a Korean keyboard?
Enter the initial, vowel, and final consonant in order.
On a standard Korean 2-set layout, type g, u, then Shiftr. Those keys enter ㅎ, ㅕ, and ㄲ; the Korean input method joins them into 혂.
Unicode normalization can also represent the same text as three separate Hangul letters, called Jamo: ᄒ, ᅧ, ᆩ. Font shaping may place those parts differently inside the square block without changing the syllable.

1Why does 혂 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.
