What 폊 means
It is one Korean syllable; context gives it meaning. This Hangul block combines ㅍ (opening consonant), ㅕ (vowel), and ㅈ (ending consonant). To understand what a writer means, look at the Korean word or sentence containing it.
Hangul was developed in 1443. Hunminjeongeum, a guide explaining the new writing system, was published in 1446. Hangul was designed to represent Korean speech more directly than the Chinese-character methods then used for Korean. It became the official national script in 1894; later printing, newspapers, books, and spelling standards widened its public reach.
How do I type 폊 on a Korean keyboard?
On a Korean two-set keyboard, press v, u, then w.
With Korean input on, the Dubeolsik (two-set) layout combines those keys into ㅍ ㅕ ㅈ and composes the block 폊. With Korean input off, the same keys enter Latin letters.
Why does 폊 look different in another font?
Different fonts can arrange the same parts differently. Their shape, size, or position can shift without changing the character.
Text software can store 폊 as one precomposed block or as separate jamo (component letters) ㅍ ㅕ ㅈ. Text normalization treats the two encodings as equivalent.

1Why does 폊 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.
