What 졋 means
It means breast or milk in Middle Korean.
Hangul was created in 1443 as an easier way to write Korean than using Chinese characters, and explained in a 1446 guide. A 1792 Korean translation of a handbook for investigating deaths lists 졋 for the breast.
Historical spelling; not ordinary modern Korean.

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.
