What 넚 means
On its own, 넚 is a Korean sound-spelling unit, not a word.
Jamo are individual Hangul letters. A block joins an initial consonant, a vowel, and sometimes a final consonant; that ending position is called batchim. Here the parts are ㄴ, ㅓ, and the final cluster ㅄ (ㅂ ㅅ).
Hangul was designed to write Korean speech. The first record of Hunminjeongeum, the name of the new Korean writing system, appears in Sejong Sillok, a court chronicle, in 1443; an explanatory book published in 1446 describes syllables built from an initial consonant, a vowel, and an optional final consonant. That design explains 넚’s block form; this syllable was not a separate invention.
How do I type 넚?
Use Korean typing software: enter ㄴ, ㅓ, ㅂ, ㅅ in order.
On the standard South Korean two-set keyboard, Dubeolsik, the sequence is s j q t; the input software joins the last two consonants as final ㅄ. If a vowel follows, some input methods split the cluster: ㅂ stays at the end here, and ㅅ can begin the next syllable.
Unicode’s composed NFC form keeps the syllable in one block; the decomposed NFD form stores its role-specific Jamo separately. Fonts can draw the same block with different strokes or proportions, but that alone does not change its reading.

1Why does 넚 look different in another font?
Yes, it can. Fonts draw the same Hangul block with different strokes or proportions. Unicode’s NFD form can also expose its role-specific Jamo; that is a storage form, not a different reading.
