What is BEEF about?

BEEF is an American comedy-drama television miniseries, a narrative that unfolds over ten episodes, rooted in the story of two strangers, portrayed by Steven Yeun and Ali Wong, whose lives become irrevocably intertwined through a chance encounter. The series begins with a road rage incident that quickly spirals into a pervasive and consuming feud between Danny Cho, a Korean American contractor on the brink of professional collapse, and Amy Lau, an entrepreneur who finds herself equally unfulfilled in her ventures. This conflict serves as a catalyst for a deeper exploration of their personal demons, cultural identities, and the social pressures that shape their reactions. As the series progresses, the consequences of their animosity are played out against a backdrop that is at once absurdly comical and poignantly reflective of human complexity. The supporting cast, featuring Joseph Lee, Young Mazino, David Choe, and Patti Yasutake, adds layers to the central narrative, providing an array of perspectives that amplify the central themes of the series. Released on Netflix and recognized by critics for its sharp writing, adept directing, and the compelling performances of its lead actors, BEEF has garnered significant attention at award ceremonies, including numerous Emmy nominations and Golden Globe accolades.

The first episode of BEEF aired on April 06, 2023 and the most recent episode to air was on April 06, 2023.
