Lee Eun Oh MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Lee Eun Oh? Lee Eun Oh is an ENFP personality type in MBTI, 4w5 - - 461 in Enneagram, in Big 5, in Socionics.
She’s one of the few ENFP 4w5s that exist. Her insistence on seeing different possibilities helps her to escape unfavorable situations - such as being cheated on and passed over and her job. Most people do not see her spunkier side - which is more reserved for her long term friends. I see her friendships as being consistent to an ENFP’s few, if any, lingering attachments. Unlike when she’s at the beach, where she is impulsive and chasing after novel / sensory experiences, she’s much more hesitant to let Park Jae-won see her for her normal self back in Seoul. No one, not even her friends, know how horribly inadequate she feels / how she compares herself to everyone else. Her entire motivation to have assumed a different personality at the beach was out of envy and feelings of not being good enough. She’s a marketing analyst, but she has repressed creative energy (shown in her funky beach outfits). In the end, she makes evasive maneuvers in order to make sure that Park Jae-won does not discover who she is. She’s 100% more committed to her career and personal ideals of herself than to her personal feelings, even at the needs of her own loneliness. She would rather keep all incomplete parts of herself separate, which I do think has somewhat to do with wanting to feel different than everyone else. As she says “I’m not the same Lee Eun-Oh.” Her repressed sx side is what leads to the eventual breaking down of her own promises. Lastly, she seems swamped by melancholic feelings almost to a fault. In spite of Park Jae-won confessing his feelings in front of her at a dangerous level of alcohol toxicity, she is able to internalize those feelings and yet still run away from him. The high combination she has of Te combined with Melancholy leads her to believe that the world is a hard and terrible place, but that one must continue to make hard decisions in order to survive. It is only through reflecting through this “documentary” of sorts that she is able to confront her feelings (slight periods of emotional introspection), which is classic of an ENFP. All in all, I found Lee Eun-Oh to be the most complicated of Kdrama characters and highly relatable due to us sharing so many aspects of typology.
