What 쥜 means
Read 쥜 as one syllable; the surrounding word supplies its meaning.
Hangul’s creation is recorded in 1443 under King Sejong; the Hunminjeongeum, a guide to the new letters and their use, appeared in 1446. Hangul offered a writing system shaped for Korean speech, where writing with Chinese characters was a poor fit. Its letters combine into square syllable blocks; 쥜 follows that pattern with an initial, vowel, and final cluster.
How do I type 쥜 on a Korean keyboard?
Dubeolsik: type w n l f t.
A Korean IME (input method editor) combines Hangul letters into a block. Those keys enter ㅈ, ㅜ, ㅣ, ㄹ, ㅅ; w n l make ㅈ ㅟ, and f t make ㄽ, the final cluster.
Why does 쥜 sometimes split into jamo?
Some apps show the forming letters instead of the finished block.
Hangul syllables can be stored as one precomposed block or as conjoining jamo, the individual letters used to build it. Fonts and apps differ in how they shape conjoining jamo, so a split display may reflect the rendering path rather than a different syllable.
쥘 is a different syllable: both begin with ㅈ ㅟ, but 쥘 ends in ㄹ while 쥜 ends in ㄽ.
Neutral inside Korean writing; alone, it has no fixed word meaning.
If it arrives alone, ask for the word around it; the syllable cannot settle the meaning.

Questions people ask
1Why does 쥜 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.
