A message containing only 뉘 does not identify which word is intended; the surrounding sentence decides.
Why does 뉘 look like a square?
Hangul arranges written sound parts in square syllable blocks. 뉘 combines the initial consonant ᄂ and vowel ᅱ. These component letters are called jamo. Hangul’s design was completed in 1443, and the book 훈민정음 explained the writing system in 1446.
Hangul was designed to write Korean in a region where Classical Chinese was used for scholarship. Its square blocks fit that page layout, but they represent Korean syllables. A 2015 discussion of Hangul type design notes that fonts can shift strokes inside a block without changing the syllable.
Neutral as a written Korean syllable; a word’s meaning comes from context.
