Dreaming of laughing until you cry - dream meaning with inherited lore

In the dream, you laugh out loud until tears gather at the corners of your eyes or stream down your cheeks. You may remember clearly whether the laughter keeps going or suddenly turns to sobs.

Korean lore: 전통적으로는 웃음과 눈물이 함께하는 장면을 마음의 기쁨이나 근심이 풀리는 흐름으로 풀이해 온 경우가 있어요. 다만 웃음과 눈물이 섞인 꿈은 당시의 분위기에 따라 다르게 보기도 해요. (민간 꿈풀이에서는 웃음과 울음의 대비를 감정이 풀리거나 바뀌는 흐름으로 읽는 경우가 있어요.)

Through the mind: 요즘 애써 괜찮은 척하거나 긴장을 오래 붙들고 있었다면, 웃음 속 눈물이 그 압력이 느슨해지는 모습일 수 있어요. 기쁘면서도 서운한 일이 겹쳐 있는 마음이 장면에 섞였을 가능성도 있어요.
