Ep 432: Sharon Kwon On Netflix’s Beef and Korean American Christianity
Therapist, writer and world traveller Sharon Kwon returns to my podcast in light of her April Slate article “The Most Emotional Scene in Beef Gets at a Deeper Truth” (https://slate.com/culture/2023/04/beef-netflix-steven-yeun-korean-church.html). Growing up as a child of a pastor of a Korean American church, Sharon experienced conflicting emotions watching the numerous scenes that were in this setting. I also saw this as an opportunity to ask her watch she thinks about the now-controversial casting of David Choe to play “Isaac” in this popular Netflix show.
