"-게끔" 이 문법이 뭔지 설명해 줄 수 있는 사람이 있으면 도와 주세요.
Is this similar to 게 하다? I searched online but I couldn't find an explanation. ㅜㅜ

I assume that you already know that Korean sentences have different word orders.
"~게끔" means "a purpose" of the latter part of the sentence, usually.
"끔" is just for emphasis here. In most cases, you can instead say "~게".
"~게끔" can be translated into English in several ways, because in English, there are many similar expressions to say a purpose like "for ... ", "to ..", "in order to..", ".. so that ...", etc.
For example,
책꽂이의 저 책을 꺼낼 수 있게끔(or 있게, 있도록), 사다리를 빌려주세요.
Please let me borrow your ladder so that I can reach the books on the book shelf and pull them out.
늦지 않게끔, 서둘러라.
= 늦지 않게, 서둘러라.
= 늦지 않도록, 서둘러라.
You'd better hurry up not to be late.
