What 렡 means

The surrounding Korean word supplies its meaning.

Its jamo—the Korean letter parts that combine into syllables—are initial consonant ᄅ, vowel ᅦ, and final consonant ᇀ. Unicode defines the same syllable as one block or as these three jamo.

Hangul was devised in 1443 to make Korean easier to write than with Chinese characters. The 1446 guide Hunminjeongeum explained how the system worked; later, Hangul spread through books, personal writing, public life, and mass printing.

Why does 렡 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.
