What 톴 means
It is a Hangul syllable block; “toss” is Unicode’s generated label. The label comes from the jamo names in Unicode’s Hangul naming scheme, not from translating a Korean word. The parts ㅌ ㅗ ㅆ show how 톴 is built, not what “toss” means.
Hangul writes Korean by arranging consonant and vowel letters into syllable blocks. The script’s creation dates to 1443; a guide explaining its principles and use appeared in 1446.
Unicode can represent 톴 as this precomposed block or as its canonically equivalent sequence of jamo, ㅌ ㅗ ㅆ. Text normalization can choose which representation is stored or compared.

1Why can the same syllable appear as separate jamo?
Yes. Unicode supports 톴 as a precomposed block and as its equivalent sequence of three jamo. Text normalization can store one form while software treats the forms as equivalent.
