What 릹 means
Alone, 릹 is not a word. It joins Hangul jamo (letters): initial ㄹ, vowel ㅣ, and final cluster ㄾ, a kind of batchim.
King Sejong's court devised Hangul in 1443; its 1446 guide, Hunminjeongeum, helped people write Korean without mastering Chinese characters. Earlier, methods called Idu, Hyangchal, and Gugyeol adapted Chinese characters for Korean. Hangul later coexisted with Chinese writing, became Korea's official script in 1894, and spread widely in the early twentieth century.
Unicode 16.0's chart shows a sample drawing, not a font rule, so strokes vary. The same syllable can be stored as 릹 or three jamo (릹).

1Why does 릹 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.
