What is the secret of Han Woo Tak in While You Were Sleeping?
The character of Han Woo Tak is a 29-year-old police officer who acquired his ability to see the future through his dreams when he was saved by Jae Chan from a car accident. He finished his police training as a top notcher in his class. Woo Tak is handsome and intelligent, with many describing him as an ideal policeman.
However, Han Woo Tak keeps a secret that can ruin his reputation and jeopardize his career as a police officer.
During episode 12, Hong Joo misplaced her battery inside Woo Tak's car and asked him to get it for her some other time. Hong Joo described the battery as "the big and red one." The other morning, Woo Tak called her to inform her that he found her battery, saying "I found the battery you dropped. The red one."
But, Hong Joo seemed taken aback. Actually, the battery wasn't red but green. By the end of the series, it was revealed that Woo Tak is suffering from color blindness. Specifically, he couldn't differentiate between the colors red and green.
Woo Tak then found out that his senior police officer Oh Kyung Han already sensed his color blindness. One time, when Woo Tak was having a hard time finding a person in a gray suit, Oh Kyung Han came to aid him. It was revealed that there was an error in his assessment as a police officer so his condition was not detected.
