Sometimes a person has too much baggage to ignore. That’s what’s happening with #BEEFNetflix
So far, the show's creator and stars as well as Netflix & A24 have been silent about audience concerns pertaining to Choe's involvement with the show chicagotribune.com/entertainment/…
The voting period for Emmy nominations is not far off. I’m curious if #BEEFNetflix intends to campaign — it seems likely it will — and if all involved will continue their silence on Choe
This is the first story on this I’ve seen from one of the Hollywood trades
#BEEFNetflix star David Choe slammed after podcast detailing “rapey behavior” resurfaces: Social media users are questioning Choe's casting in the Netflix show, pointing to a 2014 podcast in which he said he was “a successful rapist”
I keep thinking about this. It happened yesterday. A lot of outlets do live panel events, this one looks to be pegged to the Emmy nomination run-up as a way for shows to boost their profile among voters.
Were any of #BEEFNetflix's three participants asked about David Choe?
btw interesting to note that none of the big 3 Hollywood trades (all owned by the same co) have written about the Choe and the story he tells on that 2014 podcast that's resurfaced.
That's *unusual* — this is absolutely a show biz story but not even one aggregated write-up
I appreciate actors willing to make fun of themselves, shitty-ass faux-important projects that center the wrong person and all the PR stuff that goes into self-promotion! Justin Theroux is very funny here!
I’m sorry this is hilarious and a very intentional poke at nepo babies 😂
Daniel Dae Kim is talking about “The Good Doctor” here (of which he is a producer) and I know he’s explaining the strange way Hollywood works and the need for perseverance but all I hear is that networks said no when an Asian woman was attached as creator and yes when it was a WM
So this is twice that we know of where Adele Lim’s talents have been disregarded. It’s pretty infuriating.

Here’s the other instance, where she was offered significantly less than her white male co-writer on the sequel to “Crazy Rich Asians” — low-balled to the extent that she walked away.
