What 럠 means
It represents one Korean syllable, not a full message.
In the block, ㄹ fills the opening-consonant position, ㅒ the vowel position, and ㅁ the closing-consonant position. Written together as 럠, they form one syllable; the surrounding word and sentence provide the context.
Why is 럠 a square?
Hangul groups its letters into blocks, one for each written syllable.
The earliest official record of Hangul is a 1443 entry in the Sejong Sillok, a royal chronicle. The 1446 book Hunminjeongeum explains the letter designs and how to combine them. Hangul was made to write Korean speech directly, when formal writing relied heavily on Classical Chinese, a literary language distinct from spoken Korean.
Hanja—Chinese characters also used in Korean writing—can make Hangul's compact blocks look familiar, but Hangul's letters were not directly derived from those characters.
How do I type 럠?
Switch to Korean input and type ㄹ, ㅒ, then ㅁ.
A Korean input method (IME) assembles the letters as you enter them.
