Self-Sabotagers Anonymous: How To Stop Holding Yourself Back
Right - I think you need to have some semblance of patience to endure this show, as it definitely has its frustrating moments with Do Kyung's constant back-and-forth with his emotions. However, that back-and-forth is exactly what makes Another Miss Oh so beautifully real.
For my fellow self-sabotagers out there, the drama plays with the very real idea that becoming a better, healthier, happier person is a daily conscious decision. Throughout the show, Do Kyung struggles with his welded-shut heart, a product of a fairly traumatic parental loss as well as the betrayal of Oh Hae Young #2. Fearing any further pain or loss he could open himself up to if he opened up his heart, he stays behind his own self-constructed walls, comfortable, but lonely, and ultimately injuring himself even more.
Even when we have our main couple happily in love, we still see DK hesitating to say what he feels, to act on his emotions. Right until the end, he still makes the wrong decisions - the comfortable decision, the decision to turn your back and keep yourself away from others so you don't open yourself up to hurt. And yet, gradually, he begins to turn around, faster each time. He learns to open himself up to love, to life, even when that means opening himself up to hurt.
Have you ever seen the French film Amelie? Very unexpectedly, Miss Oh reminded me of it. Both feature a protagonist who has been traumatised by the world, by human relationships, and who would rather hide themselves away behind a wall, even though deep down they know they're doing themselves more harm than good. Both try to open themselves up to people multiple times, but run away scared, back into their own comfort zones. But, in the end, you've got to make the decision: do you let your heart grow cold or do you reach out and grab life, with its equal parts love and hurt, by the hands?
You grab it by the hands, MDL. Never would I have thought a Kdrama could teach me such an important, and much-needed, life lesson, but here we are. Watch the show, internalise the well-written, well-acted message, and then do it. Pull a Park Do Kyung, and reach out and grab life.
