What 륡 means
It encodes one Korean syllable, not a whole word. 륡 is a Hangul block. In Korean component notation, it contains initial ㄹ, vowel ㅠ and final consonant cluster ㄺ.
Read the Korean word around it to understand its meaning; the block has no fixed meaning by itself.
How do I type 륡?
A Korean IME builds it from ㄹ ㅠ ㄺ. Switch to Korean input; the input method editor composes the consonant and vowel letters into one syllable block. With the standard two-set Korean layout active on a QWERTY keyboard, type f b f r; the last two keys form ㄺ.
Where did Hangul come from?
륡 follows Hangul’s compositional design. Hangul was designed to make Korean easier to read and write: Chinese characters did not represent Korean speech directly and required substantial learning. The earliest official record is a 1443 entry in Sejong Sillok, the annals of King Sejong. Hunminjeongeum, a book explaining the script’s creation and principles, was published in 1446.
륡 was not invented as a separate sign. It is one combination in Hangul’s system of an initial consonant, a vowel and a final consonant cluster.

1Why did my Korean letters appear separately instead of as 륡?
Your text may contain decomposed Hangul jamo, the separate letter components, rather than the precomposed syllable. They can look alike while forming different character sequences; Unicode NFC normalization can combine modern Hangul jamo into one block.
