Dream of a Will-o'-the-Wisp Turning into Smoke - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may show expectations or anxiety that seemed clear suddenly becoming hazy, along with the wish to check what is really there.
The will-o'-the-wisp burns brightly for a moment, then unravels like smoke. When you reach for it, you cannot catch it, and only a faint trace remains in the air.
Korean lore: Traditionally, fire dispersing into smoke has sometimes been linked to opportunities or rumors that appear briefly and then vanish. It has also been interpreted as a warning about matters that become more unclear the harder you try to hold on to them. (This scene comes from folk symbolism that reads the brightness of fire and the dispersal of smoke as revelation and disappearance, respectively.)
