A Raunchy Office Affair
Check Out is a Thai BL series that dives headfirst into the murky waters of office romance, tangled relationships, and sexual tension. Set against the backdrop of a struggling media production company, this drama serves up a cocktail of lust, betrayal, and workplace drama.
Plot Summary: Months ago, Daonuea experienced heartbreak when he broke up with his boyfriend, Tee, following a painful betrayal. Seeking solace, Daonuea embarked on a solo vacation, where he met Nine, another traveler recovering from a breakup. Their passionate one-night stand left an indelible mark, but Nine vanished without a trace, leaving Daonuea yearning for more.
Fast forward to the present: Daonuea works at Lodestar Production, a small media company owned by none other than his ex-boyfriend, Tee. The company is teetering on the edge due to the recession, and desperate times call for desperate measures. When Nine reappears, it’s not just as a fleeting memory from a vacation fling. He’s now a wealthy photographer and a potential business partner for Tee’s struggling company.
What Works:
- Steamy Scenes: Check Out doesn’t shy away from raunchy moments. If you’re here for the spicy stuff, you won’t be disappointed.
- Intriguing Premise: The holiday fling-turned-business partner angle adds a layer of complexity to the story.
- Nine’s Mysterious Disappearance: The mystery surrounding Nine’s vanishing act keeps viewers engaged.
What Doesn’t Work:
- Lack of Redemption: The lead characters—Daonuea, Tee, and Nine—are all involved in shameless adultery, dishonesty, and hypocrisy. Their actions are hard to root for.
- Unrealistic Workplace Storylines: The workplace drama feels forced and lacks authenticity.
- Incoherent Plot Development: The love triangle unfolds tediously, leaving viewers frustrated.
Verdict: Check Out is as outrageous as it is offensive. While it delivers on the steamy scenes, it falls short in terms of character development and storytelling. If you’re looking for a trashy BL drama, this might fit the bill. Otherwise, proceed with caution.
