What makes Beef binge-worthy is the pure electricity radiating from Yeun and Wong’s performances. They seamlessly transition from the necessary comic moments the show needs to breathe to poignant confessions that’ll have you crying, to absolute ferociousness that still invites empathy.
What comes from their performance is character chemistry, unlike anything viewers have seen before, grounding Beef’s whirlwind conflict and making it seem entirely plausible.Â
Conclusion
Beef unpacks the complexities of parental disappointment and realizes that no choice we ever make will completely satisfy those around us. The real answer is doing whatever the hell you want to do and hopefully finding someone one day who understands why you did it.
