What 젵 means
It is one Hangul syllable block, with no fixed word meaning by itself.
Korean writing groups consonant and vowel letters, called jamo, into syllable blocks. 젵 combines the initial ㅈ, the vowel ㅔ, and the final consonant ㅌ. It follows Hangul’s regular block-building rule, so its word meaning depends on the Korean text around it.
Hangul was designed to write Korean speech directly rather than relying on Chinese characters. The earliest record cited for Hunminjeongeum, an early name for the script, dates to 1443; its explanatory book appeared in 1446. Earlier names included jeongeum (“correct sounds”), eonmun (“vernacular writing”), banjeol (“half-letters”), gukmun and gukseo (“national writing”). “Hangeul” appears in records from the early 1910s and spread more widely after 1928.
How do I type 젵?
Enter ㅈ, ㅔ, then ㅌ with a Korean input method.
A Korean IME (input method editor) assembles the letters as you type; while composing, it may briefly show separate jamo before committing the block.
Unicode normalization, a text-processing rule, can store the same syllable as one precomposed block or as decomposed jamo. The font draws the visible shape, so a different outline alone does not change the intended Korean reading.

1Why does 젵 split into letters?
It can. Text processing may use the three component letters separately instead of one precomposed block; Unicode normalization treats these as equivalent representations of the same Hangul syllable.
