What 횷 means
It is a Hangul syllable block, not a translated Korean word.
Hangul builds each syllable from jamo (component letters): 횷 combines initial ㅎ, vowel ㅛ, and final cluster ㅀ (ㄹ followed by ㅎ). The Unicode label “hyolh” describes these parts. On a standard Korean two-set keyboard, their keystrokes are G-Y-F-G.
The 1446 Hunminjeongeum, an explanation of Hangul, describes how an initial consonant, vowel, and final consonant form one block for writing each Korean syllable.
Why can 횷 look different?
Normalization can change its stored form; fonts can change its drawing.
Text-normalization rules called NFD and NFC can split the stored block into its component jamo or recombine them while preserving the same syllable. A search or text check that expects one stored character may not match the decomposed form.
Fonts draw the block differently. If separate jamo appear instead of a compact block, check font support and text normalization before deciding that the syllable changed.
How to type 횷
A Korean two-set input method editor combines the entered parts.
In Korean mode, enter ㅎ, then ㅛ, then ㄹ and ㅎ; the input method editor combines ㄹㅎ into the final cluster ㅀ and forms 횷. There is no separate key for the finished block. If the jamo remain separate, check that Korean mode and Hangul composition are enabled.

1Why does 횷 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.
