Strange Special Characters Appear When Typing Korean in Chrome on Mac

Contents

As in the screenshot below, there is a problem on macOS where typing Korean in a Chromium-based browser produces a strange special character (a ligature? a box? a hwatu card?). It doesn't show up while you're writing in Chrome, but it is visible in Safari and on Windows. This causes trouble when you're writing a document meant for the public.

What is this strange box...
What is this strange box...

Here are the workarounds.

  1. The special character is displayed as-is in Safari. So proofread once more in Safari and delete the character.
  2. Use the Gureum input method↗.
