A horrific clip of 'Beef' star David Choe joking about rape resurfaced this weekend, and it serves as a reminder of how easy it is for men to continue to have successful careers after they joke about, are accused of, or admit to rape and sexual assault.
Beef, A drama/comedy starring Ali Wong and Steven Yeun came out on Netflix this weekend. While the show is decidedly binge-worthy, its' premiere weekend has been clouded by some unfortunate revelations about another one of the show’s stars, David Choe.
A month after he told the story on his podcast, Choe made a statement and did the whole “blah blah no you don’t get it it was for my art” thing. In the same statement, he wrote, “I never thought I’d wake up one late afternoon and hear myself called a rapist. It sucks. Especially because I am not one. I am not a rapist.”
Choe issued a more in-depth statement in 2017, in which he stated in an Instagram caption, “Non-consensual sex is rape and it is never funny or appropriate to joke about. I was a sick person at the height of my mental illness, and have spent the last 3 years in mental health facilities healing myself and dedicating my life to helping and healing others through love and action. I do not believe in the things I have said although I take full ownership of saying them.
