Bachelor 6 Finale Analysis | This wasn't a 'story of being chosen,' but a 'story of change'
"To the me who is okay with being loved" — Three unique stories of growth
First, let me apologize for my previous prediction.
"Oda-san will be chosen!" — I was so convinced of this that Iwas completely danced around by the Amazon teaser editing magic. I lost completely.
Now, to the main point.
What was particularly impressive this time was the way each of the three people "changed."
• Oda-san — "To the me who is okay with being loved"
• Ishimori-san — "Recovering the courage to love"
• Kujime-san — "From speaking for his mother, to his own words"
This change was clearly reflected in their dialogues with their families.
⸻
1) Oda-san — "To the me who is okay with being loved"
Oda-san's father spoke through tears, and I couldn't help but tear up too.
"I thought it was a huge growth to hear words of gratitude from Miu's own mouth."
Having lived in a world of comparison like K-POP and modeling, she may havelearned the art of living without opening her heart.
She, who showed rivalry toward others at the beginning of the journey, was cheering for her friends and expressing gratitude by the end.
"It's thanks to Kazuki-kun that I've become able to speak my true feelings.
It's thanks to the girls that I've become able to want to be kind and cherish others."
The reason she, who was once desperate to protect herself, became able to show compassion to those around her is perhaps becauseshe began to feel a little more secure in herself.And that change might have been a manifestation of her own small conviction that
"I am okay with being loved too."Her parents must have known better than anyone how big a change that first step was.⸻
2) Ishimori-san — "Recovering the courage to love"
"I've found someone I want to marry for the first time."Her mother's eyes widened in surprise at Ishimori-san's words.
The fact that her mother, who is calm and composed as if she knows everything about her daughter, was that surprised,
is proof that Ishimori-san has truly kept her distance from romance for these past four years.
Hurt by past relationships, she may have kept her distance from people and
chosen a "world where she could feel safe alone."That she was able to feel, for the first time through a person named Kujime-kun,"I want to envision a future with someone"
was, I think, amajor "recovery of the heart" and a "new beginning" for her.
⸻3) Kujime-san — "Beyond his mother's words, he chose with his own voice"What was impressive in the After Rose was Kujime-san's mother's words.
"Kazuki only says one or two words out of what he's thinking.
But I am grateful that you all have gathered here like this."The way she offered thanks on behalf of her son even to the "women who were eliminated" felt like a "shadow final rose" 🌹.
However—honestly, it's a bit rare for a mother to appear with such presence when her son, who is over 30, is choosing a marriage partner.
Her words exuded an understanding of her son and the way she has routinely covered for his "poor communication skills."
For example, instead of him, who would get nervous and fall silent, his mother would expand the conversation or supplement his feelings.
Kujime-kun may have spent a long time entrusting his "things he wanted to say" to his mother, as if relying on her presence.
Butthis time, Kujime-kun didn't rely on anyone and conveyed "I want to live with this person" in his own words.
I believe that was proof that he chose his future with his own will.
⸻
In conclusionThe one chosen was Ishimori-san.
But this journey is not a story of winning or losing.
Oda-san became a me who is okay with being loved.Ishimori-san became a me who is okay with loving someone.Kujime-san finally spoke of his future in his own words.
Each of them broke out of their shells.I feel it was a quiet, yet certain "story of growth."
