We had a murder mystery, plot twist, and had relationships
At first I was really afraid to watch this show since it’s a show where one male lead is Thai and the other one is Korean so their speaking two different languages and we had ‘Love is like a cat’ come out this year and that show was really bad. I will say that this one isn’t as bad as ‘Love is like a cat’, but it had way more chemistry and I felt like I was watching a normal drama since whenever Save (Jay) spoke Thai it seemed normal and when Jun Won (Sung Hoon) spoke Korean with the other cast members it just seemed like their wasn’t any difference between the languages so the show seemed good. I will say this plot is actually really hilarious. I will warn you that there may be spoilers so be aware.
I really enjoyed the plot of Eccentric Romance which was a school drama, but also a mix with murder mystery and a mix of friends into lovers trope because one of their classmates got murdered as we saw once the show started. Jay is Thai and moved to Korea so he can hang out more with his best friend which is Sung Hoon. Everyone was really welcoming to Jay so he felt comfortable, but we also know that their main class is a type of fitness class which is where we meet Seung Ju who is a YouTuber and could probably know about what happened to his classmates death since he is always recording and Kihyeon who is sort of Seung Ju’s best friend. The main point in being in their class that they’re taking is that you need to be fit and healthy so everyday they all go to the gym. One day Jay tagged along to Sung Hoon to go to the gym, but while Sung Hoon worked out by himself Jay got to buy a membership for the school gym to have a personal trainer which is Jin Wook. Sung Hoon felt that Jay shouldn’t be needing to pay money for a trainer when he can teach him himself, so Jay canceled his membership with Jin Wook, but is still very friendly with him until one day Sung Hoon overhears Jin Wook on the phone and he was acting suspicious and then he found the weapon that was used to kill the student, so he kept telling Jay to be aware and to stop hanging out with him, but Jay didn’t want to do it unless he had proof of it. Overtime they both slowly forget about it until Ki Hyeon mentions that there could be the murder around them since where they were doing service things was near the location of the students death. Then Ji Won who works at the gym and saw on Seung Ju’s camera a video of the student who died and Jin Wook fighting so she became scared and told Sung Hoon, but once she told him he had to go rescue Jay because Jin Wook wouldn’t leave him alone and kept chasing after him, but she ended up disappearing. Then we find out in ep 9 that Seung Ju and Ki hyeon are the murders, but it technically wasn’t a murder in my opinion because Seung Ju had a crush on the classmate who got killed, but it was him who fell on the item that he was killed with so that made Seung Ju feel like he killed him, but we know that Ji won, Jay, Jin Wook, and Sung Hoon aren’t the suspects, but they did get kidnapped and Sunghoon did get stabbed, but in the end Seung Ju and Ki Hyeon are arrested and the rest are still working out, doing photo shoots, and Sung Hoon and Jay are showing their relationship publicly. With all of this happening in the plot we do get to see a whole lot of friendships being formed and one relationship which was Jay and Sung Hoon. I do feel they have chemistry, but I feel that this storyline doesn’t fit them if they wanted them to be a couple because sometimes they would be boring and even the actors got boring after some time, but I got over it. I do feel they have more chemistry than ‘Love is like a Cat’ so I will give them that because Love is like a Cat was a whole other show that I don’t want to talk about. Overall, I feel the show was good and definitely way better than Love is like a cat, but it does need some improvements in the plot. I do feel it was a good show overall but it definitely wasn’t the best one I’ve seen, but I do recommend this drama.
