The creators and stars of Netflix show "Beef" released a statement in response to backlash for casting David Choe, who had previously made graphic comments about coercing a woman into a sexual act. The statement acknowledged Choe's apology and mental health support, and said they take seriously the responsibility of telling stories that reflect the world we live in and creating a safe and inclusive environment. They also said they are committed to learning from this experience and being better moving forward.
