할거야, 할까 and 할래

Hello,

I’ve been attempting to clarify the difference between 할거야, 할까 and 할래.

As far as I can see, the functions of these grammatical terms are:

• 할거야 - This is a statement of a future fact. (FACT)
• 할까 - The speaker asks the listener’s opinion about a possible future. (PROPOSITION)
• 할래 - The speaker states an intended action. The listener is expected to react. (INTENTION)

Would you agree with these functions?



I have tried to produce examples using different subjects. Does my English meaning match with the Korean meaning? The English is a little unnatural because I have tried to maintain a consistent sentence structure for each case.

항상 고맙습니다 ^^

I agree your meaning match. It is perfect. except one. 

This is "사람들은 집에 갈거야?" 

We can't say like that. Can you ask people? I don't know this is possible in English.

but it is wrong in korean.  

When we ask someone. It must there are someone exist(who we can talk)

You can say such as "여러분은 집에 갈꺼예요?", "Will everyone go home?"
