How do I say, "I didn't know someone was in here"? Like when you are walking in a room and you are surprised that someone is there. 예를 들어, 방에 들어갈때 갑자기 사람이 보았어요. My attempt: 여기에 사람이 인줄 몰았어요.

Hi Russell, Nice attempt. Almost correct. [여기에 사람이 인줄 몰았어요.] --> [여기에 사람이 있는줄 몰랐어요.] But it would sound more natural if you use '누가' (anyone/someone) in stead of '사람' (person/human). So the sentence would be, [여기 누가 있는줄 몰랐어요.] Hope it helps.
