A dream about elevator doors that keep reopening - dream meaning with inherited lore

The doors start to close, then open again, and the people inside cannot get off as the same situation repeats. You may also feel as if you are waiting for someone or holding the doors open.

Korean lore: Traditionally, a door that will not close has sometimes been interpreted as a situation that is not fully resolved or still carries lingering feelings. It can also be seen as a time to look again at a relationship or plan. (In folk dream interpretations, doors have often been read as symbols of boundaries and transitions.)
