David Choe Faces Backlash Over Resurfaced Rape Comments and 'Beef' Role.

Artist and Beef actor David Choe faced backlash after a resurfaced video of him graphically describing raping a woman on a 2014 podcast went viral on Twitter. The Los Angeles-based artist, who became famous for painting murals for Facebook, was recently featured on Netflix's popular show Beef. The video was removed due to copyright claims, and Choe has stated that the story was fictional. Several media outlets reported on the comments in 2014, but Choe responded by stating that he was an artist and storyteller, and that the podcast was not a representation of his reality.
