While the cast is enjoying the show’s success, a new controversy has emerged that’s getting bigger by the day.

The actor had previously opened up about his story and called it an imaginary scenario. For more details, scroll on.
Beef stars Steven Yeun as Danny Choe and Ali Wong as Amy Lau in the lead roles. An accident in the parking lot brings their fates together, turning them into enemies. They gradually learn about each other’s real identities and everything about their family. The show is a perfect pick for those who loved Fleabag and Killing Eve in the past as it will remind them of both. David plays the role of Danny’s cousin, who is recently released from incarceration.
As per The Independent, David Choe narrated an incident on his podcast, DVDASA, in 2014, where he talked about forcing a massage therapist to perform oral s*x on him. “The thrill of possibly going to jail, you know, that’s what achieved the erection quest,” he said in the podcast. As per NBC, he had also mentioned, “So I go back to the chill method of: You never ask first, you just do it, get in trouble and then pay the price later.”
