KOREAN DREAM INTERPRETATION
Stranger Dream Meaning
낯선 사람 · natseon-saram
A stranger represents the unknown—new influences, hidden parts of yourself, or an unexpected turn approaching.
In Korean tradition
Unknown figures often herald new people, opportunities, or changes entering your life. A helpful stranger signals unexpected support or a lucky encounter, while a threatening one reflects anxiety about the unfamiliar.
Why Koreans read it this way
The stranger embodies what has not yet entered your conscious life; Korean tradition treats their demeanor as a preview of how the coming change will feel—welcome or unsettling.
