@Eirikr, thanks for inadvertently bringing this to my attention. This "word" is attested only in 華音方言字義解, a collection of folk etymologies from the 1780s, as an "etymology" for, an ancient Korean castle besieged by Tang Taizong. I put "etymology" in quotations because most etymologies in this collection are nonsensical:


 * Claims comes from
 * Claims comes from  and similar balderdash for all four seasons
 * Claims is a phonetic corruption of  (????)

Based on an online search, nobody seems to be using it either. Delete.--Karaeng Matoaya (talk) 19:06, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
 * And while I don't have access to the source itself, it's a popular dictionary of pre-20th century Korean whose advertisement says 330종의 고문헌에서 표제어와 용례 채록, 옛 고유어와 한자어를 두로 수록 ("includes both obsolete native and Sino-Korean words, with headwords and quotations from 330 sources"), so it just seems that 華音方言字義解 was one of the 330 sources included. I couldn't find any Early Modern use or mention of this word outside this source.--Karaeng Matoaya (talk) 19:12, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
