What 쫮 means

It contributes one syllable's sound; surrounding Korean words supply meaning.

쫮 combines ㅉ ㅘ ㅈ, three jamo (Hangul letters) arranged in one block.

What is the history behind 쫮?

Its broader story is part of Hangul's history.

Hangul, first known as Hunminjeongeum, was developed in 1443. A book published in 1446 explained its aim: making Korean easier to write than Chinese characters. The name “Hangeul” became common in the early 1910s. Those dates describe the script, not this individual syllable.

Why does 쫮 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.
