What 퀪 means
퀪 gives one syllable, not a complete Korean message. The Hangul letters that build the block are called jamo: ㅋ starts the syllable, ㅞ is its vowel, and ㅄ is its final consonant cluster.
Hangul was developed under King Sejong of the Joseon dynasty to make Korean writing more accessible. Written Korean had relied heavily on Chinese characters, which were an awkward fit for Korean speech and grammar. Hangul's creation is dated to 1443; the book 훈민정음, which explains its letters, was completed in 1446.
An early example is the court poem 용비어천가, commissioned in 1445 to celebrate Joseon's royal ancestors. Its verses were written in Korean, then translated into Chinese and published in 1447. It shows Hangul in use for Korean court writing early on.
How do I type 퀪?
A Korean IME can assemble it from its Hangul letters. Enter ㅋ, ㅞ, and ㅄ in that order; the input method combines them into one syllable block. The physical keystrokes depend on your Korean keyboard layout.
Unicode can represent a Hangul syllable as one precomposed block or as an equivalent sequence of letters. Text normalization may switch between those forms, so the stored character sequence can differ even when the Korean text reads the same.
In Korean spelling, it is a neutral syllable inside a word; alone, it reads like an unfinished spelling.
Alone, it gives a syllable but too little context for a message.
