What 쇔 means
ㅅ, ㅙ, and ㅁ.
They fill the initial-consonant, vowel, and final-consonant positions in one Hangul block. The block writes one Korean syllable; the surrounding word supplies the larger meaning.
When did Hangul appear?
Hangul was devised in 1443 and published in 1446.
King Sejong devised Hangul so people could learn to read and write Korean more easily. In 1446, the book 훈민정음 (“Proper Sounds for the Instruction of the People”) explained its letters and use. 쇔 follows Hangul’s pattern for building written syllables.

1Why does 쇔 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.
