Arguably okay.

This series truly isn't as horrible as many may say it is; your taste in and expectations of dramas, especially bls, may formulate your opinion more than you may realize.

Check Out wasn't BAD, but it really could've been produced better. From my perspective, there were a few scenes that could've been better or have been filmed differently--the acting just didn't look seamless nor did it feel how it probably should've unless they intended for it to be a little awkward even after minimal communication amongst the characters. The storyline in theory didn't seem weak, but the execution was indeed poor. It just felt as though we were tiptoeing around something that should've been revealed nearly 3 episodes ago--everytime. The OST wasn't my favourite either, the timing of the songs felt off--a NC scene is about to happen and you have music that doesn't match? Or was that the kind of energy they wanted it to give off? Just odd. Regardless, some scenes had music that did match when it mattered thankfully, but a vast majority of the time it just didn't sit well with me.

My biggest complaint would most definitely have to be the jumpcuts. When you get to that scene you'll know exactly what I speak of. Maybe I have misunderstood the use of jumpcuts, but the way the technique has been utilized has irked me to a state of no return. Otherwise, I don't really have many things that have thrown me off aside from the way the actors seemed to have been directed. A thumbs up to the person who was in charge of cinematography, a solid 8/10 in my book.

Overall, this show as stated in the headline is 'Arguably Okay' as I did not enjoy it much, but I am sure someone else did. I will say that if you are interested in watching it to give it up to 5 episodes (which is what I did) and then see how you feel about the content you've seen up to that point.
