What 쾛 means
Use Korean 2-beolsik: ㅋ ㅙ ㅀ.
On the standard layout, z enters ㅋ, ho enters ㅙ, and fg enters final ㅀ; together, zhofg forms 쾛. Typing the romanized label kwaelh does not enter these keystrokes.
What does 쾛 mean?
It is one Hangul syllable block.
Hangul jamo are the letters used to build syllable blocks. In 쾛, ㅋ begins the syllable as its initial consonant, ㅙ is the vowel, and ㅀ is the final consonant; together they make one syllable. These parts guide the sound, while the surrounding Korean word or phrase supplies the meaning.
Why are Korean letters written in blocks?
A Hangul block groups letters into one syllable.
Hangul was created to write Korean speech with alphabetic letters arranged into syllable blocks. Its design was recorded in the annals of King Sejong, a record of his reign, in 1443. The guide Hunminjeongeum explained the new script and its principles when it was published in 1446. The script helped people write Korean, whose sounds Chinese characters did not fit well.
A unified Korean spelling proposal appeared in 1933; the system was partly revised in 1988. 쾛 follows Hangul's general syllable-block system rather than being a separately invented sign.
Neutral as a syllable in Korean writing.
A lone 쾛 gives no word or sentence context; ask which Korean word or name it belongs to.

1Why do I see ㅋㅙㅀ instead of 쾛?
Your input method may leave the jamo decomposed, or the app may not shape them into one block. Unicode supports both decomposed jamo and precomposed syllables, and they can display differently. Enable Hangul composition.
