What 멦 means

It spells one syllable, not a complete word.

Hangul groups letters into syllable blocks. In 멦, initial ᄆ, vowel ᅦ, and final two-consonant cluster ᆹ combine; a Korean word supplies the meaning.

Why was Hangul created?

To give Korean a simpler writing system.

Earlier Korean writing borrowed Chinese characters; systems such as Idu, Gugyeol, and Hyangchal adapted them to Korean. King Sejong devised Hangul in 1443; the 1446 book Hunminjeongeum explained its purpose and design. Hangul gained official status in Korea in 1894.

Why does 멦 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.
