Someone tells you to count to 40. Their voice may sound familiar, or it may be unclear whether you started counting.
Korean lore: 숫자 40 자체에 대한 전승은 뚜렷하지 않아요. 누군가의 말을 듣는 장면은 주변의 요청이나 지시가 마음에 남은 모습으로 풀이하기도 해요. (민간 꿈풀이에서 말이나 지시를 듣는 장면을 현실의 소식과 주변 관계에 비추어 보는 일반적인 흐름을 따랐어요.)
Through the mind: 직장이나 관계에서 정해진 순서를 지키거나 기대에 맞춰야 한다고 느끼는 때일 수 있어요. 꿈속 목소리가 누구였는지, 그 말을 따를 때 어떤 기분이었는지 돌아보세요.
