Hangul Syllable Jeus

Its historical sense is “act, appearance.”

A study of hyangchal—an old system that used Chinese characters to write Korean—prints 즛 in a proposed reading of an Old Korean text; that reconstruction does not establish that this modern block was written then. In the 19th century, spelling shifted from 즛 to 짓; 즛장 was an older form of modern 끝장 (“the end”).

Different fonts can draw it differently without changing the character. Unicode normalization can show 즛 as three Hangul jamo (letters), ᄌ + ᅳ + ᆺ, instead of one syllable block.
