What 캐 means
It is a Hangul syllable; the surrounding Korean word gives it meaning. In the verb 캐다, 캐 means “dig up or gather”; 나물을 캐 uses it for gathering greens. In the gaming term 사기캐, 캐 is clipped from 캐릭터, “character.”
Hangul syllable blocks are assembled from smaller Korean letters called jamo. 캐 combines the consonant ㅋ and vowel ㅐ in one block.
Hangeul was devised in 1443, and its design was explained in 1446. Earlier Korean writers also used systems such as Idu, Gugyeol, and Hyangchal, which adapted Chinese characters to write Korean. The verb 캐다 appears in a Middle Korean text from 1459; Middle Korean is an earlier stage of the language.
The syllable itself does not set a formal or casual tone; its Korean word or phrase does.
A lone 캐 does not identify one meaning; read the surrounding Korean.

1Why does 캐 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.
