Text symbol

What 녘 means

It follows a word that sets the reading. A place or direction gives a region; a time word means “around then.”

Why is it written as 녘, not 녁?

Use 녘 in standard Korean. Draft standards switched between 녘 and 녁 in 1979–1987, without changing the meaning.

Compounds such as 동녘 and 저녁녘 are written together; as of 2025, phrases such as 아침 녘 and 해 질 녘 are spaced.

Why does 녘 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.
