Beef season 1

The 10-part American Beef is about colliding worlds of social classes. The gap between rich and poor, chanceless and promising. With the road rage as the opening sequence, the tone is set at full speed. Danny Cho (Steven Yeun) runs a sketchy handyman business and feels responsible for his live-in brother and parents who still live in Korea. Amy Lau (Ali Wong) is an interior stylist. She is also about to make a huge business deal. Beef focuses almost entirely on the Asian-American community, an original angle.

The first episodes of Beef are slightly reminiscent of The White Lotus with satire, social criticism and hypnotic sounds. However, no holiday resorts in this black comedy (beef is slang for quarrel). The full screenplay by executive producer Lee Sung Jin ensures a high pace in the first four episodes. Entertaining, but at the same time: a lot of fuss about little. Halfway through the pace slows down considerably and Beef changes course. Lots of psychologizing, flashbacks, emotions and surfacing demons from the past of the main characters. In short, a mixed bag. Despite the good acting, Beef cannot convince.
