A dream of being chased by a former coworker - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may be a scene where past work relationships or unresolved feelings about work are on my mind again.
A coworker I used to work with follows me at work or down a hallway. Thoughts about work or relationships that lingered after I left may come back to me, and I may try to run away from them.
Korean lore: There isn’t a specific traditional interpretation for being chased by a former coworker. It seems reasonable to read being chased by someone familiar as a lingering burden in a relationship. (Rather than a distinct traditional interpretation for this scene, this draws on folk readings that connect being chased by someone with relationship burdens.)
Through the mind: Awkward moments or unfinished business from your previous job may be coming back to mind as they connect with something else in your life now. It may help to look at whether the feelings or sense of responsibility from that time are still with you, more than the person themselves.
