What 맵 means
Read the whole word: 맵 gets its meaning in context. The Korean word 맵다 describes spicy food, but can also describe a fierce temperament, biting cold, or smoke that stings. These meanings belong to the full word.
Hangul was created to make Korean easier to write than with Classical Chinese, an older formal written language, and was promulgated in the 15th century. A form of 맵다 is recorded in Middle Korean, an earlier stage of Korean, in 1447. In the Hangul block 맵, ㅁ is the first consonant, ㅐ the vowel, and ㅂ the final consonant.
Neutral as a syllable; the complete word supplies its tone.

1Why does 맵 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.
