What 멏 means
It writes one syllable, built from an initial, a vowel and a final. Its three jamo (Hangul's component letters) are ᄆ, ᅥ and ᆾ. The Korean word or name containing this syllable supplies the meaning.
King Sejong devised Hangul in 1443. In 1446, Hunminjeongeum (훈민정음), a guide explaining the new letters, was published. Before Hangul, Korean writing used Chinese characters and adaptations such as Idu, Gugyeol and Hyangchal, which used those characters to represent Korean words and grammar. Hangul gave Korean speech a writing system designed for its sounds.
Hangul later appeared in Buddhist and Confucian books, practical publications and personal letters. It gained official status in 1894; that standing ended when Japanese rule began in 1910. The script is built from jamo: older or nonstandard text can show them separately, while modern Hangul joins them into blocks such as 멏.
