Dreaming of a stranger at the door - dream meaning with inherited lore

Before opening the door, you see or hear someone you don't know outside. You hesitate to open it or try to find out who they are.

Korean lore: An unfamiliar person at the door has sometimes been read as a sign of news or a meeting on the way. The meaning may differ depending on whether you opened the door and whether you felt glad or wary. (In folk dream interpretation, a home’s doorway is sometimes seen as a place where outside connections and news come and go.)
