What 쬼 means
It represents one spoken syllable in Korean writing. Hangul syllable blocks are units that join to form Korean words and sentences.
Each block brings together an opening consonant, a vowel and sometimes a closing consonant. These component letters are called jamo. A Korean input method editor (IME)—software that converts keyboard input into Korean text—combines the jamo as you type.
Hangul was designed to write Korean speech using sound-based blocks. Its earliest surviving record dates to 1443. The 1446 Hunminjeongeum, a book explaining the script's purpose and principles, sets out the design. The script was also called Hunminjeongeum, eonmun and gukmun at different times; Hangeul appears in records in the early 1910s and became widely used as the name after 1928.
