Yeah danny for me was always a guy who’s trying his best but is just getting beat down by the world he wants to do good to be good but not everyone can succeed some people keep drawing the short stick over and over. Then i saw that scene and i was like you deserve it bro.
Yeah. That scene really solidified him as a messed up person imo. But its super realistic. People everyday in shitty situations will try to hold back others they "care" about to keep them on their level of struggle.
They were just letters from the schools with the possibility of acceptance or denial. The audience (Us) and Danny is unaware of the status of his brothers application because the letters were never opened.
The church scene hit me, the acting was so phenomenal. It took me back to a time when I was overwhelmed with everything, went to a public park in Sydney - and just cried. It felt amazing after, and the way Steven portrays that scene is truly masterful.
Everyone in the show did some great acting, but this scene in particular separated Steven from the rest. Too relatable, sometimes you just need a good cry.
part of why beef is so effective is because of how the characters are written (and then performed - the actors were all so dang good), especially being written to be unlikeable people. they're so flawed, you can't help but dislike them, and it frustrates you to watch them barrel down the road of self-destruction but there's also so much catharsis for them in this release of everything they were repressing, all bottled up, as pure, bitter, unadulterated anger. they feel so human that you can't help but feel a strong connection to their feelings and an understanding of exactly why they do what they do. and the show doesn't even stop at anger - by the final episodes, you're a sobbing mess as the anger subsides and the loneliness and desire to trully, honestly connect to another person emerges. i remember all through the show going YOU GUYS HAVE NO IDEA HOW SIMILAR YOU ARE!!! YOU'D BE GREAT FRIENDS!!!! and in the final shot, truly gutwrenching stuff.
Truly lots of stressful and heartbreaking scenes. Get a box of tissues and a couple doses of Xanax ready for this one. I actually had to just get away from a few scenes because it was like watching a train wreck in slow motion. Really stressed me out LoL.
It's because they're human. You can empathize with each character so well despite them being unlikeable because they're very human characters. I much prefer to see a character I can slowly grow to develop emotions for rather than feeling I should root for them from the start and making flawed human characters is the best way to do that for sure
SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER I actually can't remember feeling any strong disliing towards the two main characters, except when danny threw his brother's college applications in the trash. But I did start to really grow to hate Isaac.
@Anonymous omg. I literally shouted wtf, yh, that's probably his lowest moment in the show. Even though you understand where the character is coming from, his actions were just so shitty and selfish.
I watched this show in one night lol. It was so good. I’m glad Steven showed this side of his acting because when he left TWD he wanted to prove his range. He did so good
The scene when Amy was fighting with George in the art gallery hit me the hardest. "Who's gonna buy Amy something? Amy is. AMY is gonna buy amy something." Ive never related to a character as much as i did in that moment. Even down to how absolutely fuming she was while saying it.
The entirety of the show was relatable for me as well..as far as the dialogue, especially when the boys are talking with each other, even when they’re driving, getting mad as hell. The next day after watching this series an A hole pulled out in front of me without putting on a blinker and I honked and the dude flipped the bird just like she did in the show 😂 right out the window nice and high for everyone to see 😂
Look, I don't know you so I can't pretend to understand what it is you're going through. But if you feel that you can easily identify with such broken toxic characters then it's probably best to get professional help at that point. Best of luck.
Dear Walker, I hope this message finds you well. If you are going through a tough time it is better to speak to someone or seek help. I hope you can find peace and calmness because you deserve it. Hope it all gets better soon.
It is indeed the best show on Netflix. Superb beginning, middle, and ending. The acting was great, it had me laughing, on the verge of tears at times. Beef is one of those shows that I will go back to just because I want to experience it again. Excellent writing, and the story comes around full circle.
It's up there but when i think back to all the great Korean and Japanese films and series alone over the last three years at best I could say it's among the top twenty. Personally midnight diner was better in a lot of ways. Beef was just a little too much at a few points but then I've been away from the USA for 13 years and i guess I've forgotten how stressful life can be there.
Beef is one of the good ones. But not the best Netflix originals, not when Dark exists. Even more so if we include not just the originals but all of shows in Netflix.
This was one of the best “the villain is the main character shows” . Idk why but shows or movies like that are great for us getting mad at someone who doesnt exists. Just like Walter White was main character that we hated but it made us feel and connect more with the side characters. When Paul and Danny escape , i easily knew how Danny felt. Since ,as the viewer ,we see their perspectives . Especially like said the culture reference comes in makes us relate to a personal level . Its definitely one of the best shows out there that deserve awards. And really gives Netflix vibes not that it’s bad, but if the show was spread out longer such as weekly episodes, the show would lack the fast pace the show gives. The anger, the revenge, the different stages of THE beef the characters are going through. And in order to stay in the rollercoaster of a show it is. Which is best binging it . Definitely amazing watch .and thanks to the amazing cast and crew for made making a great story
Started watching this because of Steven Yuen but was instantly gripped by this show. I never had any idea where it was going and it turned out to be a lot more than I thought it would be.
Shows like this definitely deserve more praise because everyone is all about clowning on stuff with bad writing (although sometimes justified), it would great if people did the opposite to things with amazing writing and acting etc
I saw this video in my recommended, and I saw the title, and I said to myself, huh, I like Steven Yeun, I’ll give it a shot. Everything was perfect, but the one thing that felt so real to me was when Danny went to church for the first time. The scene, the vibe, the emotion, felt so pure. The show doesn’t blow the perception of Christianity out of proportion; to me, growing up in a Christian background, this is exactly how church is like, and just like Danny, I always felt uncomfortable because I knew I wasn’t a good person, and I’ve cried in church because of it. I felt like I was involved throughout the entire show, and damn, it felt good and bad at the same time, because it was like looking into a mirror. In a way, it feels good that we’re not the only ones who feel like this.
I don't even need to watch this entire video to say yes. This was unironically the most profound, intense, contemplative show I have ever seen. Many shows have impacted and gotten me invested, but this was the first show that had me at a complete loss for words while making me feel things I didn't even know were possible.
Going into this video i wasnt sure if you were going to restate the obvious just bc youtubers tend to do that on videos like this one, but you really added something to the conversation with this, this show has left a deep impact on me for sure and you made a lot of awesome connections many people probably missed. I was starting to draw some conclusions about the theme of the show, but you mapped it out quite perfectly. Good job and keep up the great work!
I tried my very best to convey what feelings and ideas the show stirred up in me, that’s my aim with every video I make. Thank you so much for your kind words and I hope to make equally as insightful videos in the future that people like yourself can connect to.
Already saw comments on it, but the church scene was perfection. Maybe not to others, but for me. It connected with me on levels I've never experienced.
this was the first Netflix show to hook me since Better Call Saul I think Beef exhibits some masterful storytelling and character writing and I can't wait to see where they go next
Better call Saul isn’t a Netflix show, and saying it’s the first since better call Saul isn’t saying much because it finished airing less than a year ago
@@matthewread1671in most countries netflix holds the rights and it is displayed as a netflix original, like how in America we have a bunch of random foreign movies that are shown as netflix originals but aren't
as a korean american who grew up in LA also used to go to church and lose money in crypto, i related way too much. almost feels like this show was made for me lol
what the hell this guy only has 402 subscribers this was a rly good video i didn't even think that this channel was small untill i saw the sub counts. really good job guy
A TV show hasn’t given me this deep of an emotional impact in a long while. I feel tears of joy and sadness fill up behind my eyes like a dam every single time I’m reminded of it. Beginning to end, it was one of the greatest shows of all time. A story is meaningless unless it writes a story within us. This show cut a story within me-a cut so deep I felt it in my soul. All in all, I absolutely loved “Beef” for everything it offered: the acting, the message, the script, the storyline, and the plot.
What I found truly amazing was it managed to hook me emotionally and psychologically in a single episode when most shows take me several episodes or even a season to feel invested. The writing, the acting, the directing - a perfect mix executed flawlessly.
Thoroughly enjoyed. All of the characters were likeable, flawed. I loved it. Perfect ending. Sooo glad his arm wrapped around her at the very end. Wounded wonderful people.
I've slept on this show for so long. I just binged the whole series in a night and man. This show made me laugh it made me cry. When the songs play at the end I got goosebumps every time and episode 9 was the most stressful 35 minutes of television I've seen in a while. Can't wait to watch it all again
It's insane how much I could relate with both of these characters. Being lucky to be born in a fortunate family which has a lot of relative and emotional pressures and issues like amy and no matter how hard I try, i still cannot get where I'm trying to be like danny. Both of these characters are so heavily flawed, yet I find them so sympathetic as well.
It's not just the best netflix has to offer, but the best television as a format can offer a few shows to reach that status and fewer can keep it during its run
It's a reflection of fantasies we all have in moments like this in life. A part of all of us thinks about going on a two way stalker fest in moments like this but very few of us act on it.
@@struan8467 you could say that about the earliest seasons, and I do like Andrew Lincoln. But otherwise? Walking dead and good acting weren't the first things I thought of together
Thanks for the excellent and thoughtful review. Truly a spectacular show, I can't believe I started watching it purely at random.. and I was finished watching it two nights later. I'm sure I'll rewatch it at some point in the near future, too..!
Disney eat your fucking hearts out... THIS is how you write a show.... Beef was such a ride.... I just thought it was going to be a light Asian American comedy... as the opposite (Caucasian in Japan) I was immediately attracted. wow.. what an absolute gem. but Danny threw away his brothers' acceptence letters... this for me was the unforgivable scene...
Just finished the show... after seeing this video on my yt homepage, watched a few minutes of your video and bit the bullet on binging the episodes seeing that they're only 30 minutes and wowwww! It was, simply put, very well done uwu
Just noticed the first episode is called "the birds don't sing, they screech in pain" which is one of Herzog's famous lines from when he was filming Fitzcarraldo
I just discovered both this show and video essay, and although I really enjoyed Beef and have plenty of my own opinions on it, I just wanted to comment to say how I thought this was a brilliant analysis of the show. It is well written, edited and researched, and I was engaged the whole way through (which is hard to do!). There's a lot of video essays being put out there, and it's inspiring to see creators make work that is so in depth and thorough. I really enjoyed learning new things about the creators personal experience with suicidal ideation too, and thought that your commentary throughout the video was super insightful and genuine. Safe to say I immediately subscribed, and can't wait to see what other work you put out there!
I’m soooo glad you enjoyed my video. I appreciate the kind words and the sub! Your comment made my day! Stuff like this helps motivate me to keep doing what I love and putting my thoughts out there on video 🥰
Wow I love the Carl Jung quote at the end! Been thinking about shadow work and the darker side of the unconscious recently. Really goes with the quote 😌
The small touches were also such nice little tidbits to catch. When they visit their church friends and are served pear and orange slices... That is PEAK Korean authenticity. One of the rare shows that doesn't just use ethnic actors in front of a Caucasian production staff.
This is so well put together! I loved your commentary, you spoke into being the thoughts that have been floating around unformed in my head since I finished the show. Could not believe you had so few subs when I saw the number, excellent video dude 💗
6:09 you’re wrong. His cousin talks him into letting him run the construction gig with the church and says “you should just let me drive” and then tells the cops on him because 6:09
This show is so good, I have recomended to everyone I know. The way it touches a lot of important topics on ones life in an easy but strong enough way that if don't want to think about it you can still enjoy the show, but if yout to stop and reflect on those things the show becomoes even more special... its just so good from the writing to the acting... I really liked it
It is the best, i watched it when it came out, its amazing and refreshing, no identity politics no bullshit just good stuff, as a southern African i recommend
This show was amazing imo. But I won't lie. . . It took my chimpanzee brain capacity self like three episodes in to realize the title BEEF was referring to the beef between people and not food.

Beef and Blue Eye Samurai are the best Netflix shows of 2023, looking forward to seeing what Netflix has to offer in 2024!
Agree
The worst thing Danny did imo was when he threw away his brothers acceptance letters. Everything else was forgivable and understandable for me

I was cringing so hard in that scene. It really made me dislike his character. As you said, everything else was forgivable, but that’s just horrible

The small touches were also such nice little tidbits to catch. When they visit their church friends and are served pear and orange slices... That is PEAK Korean authenticity. One of the rare shows that doesn't just use ethnic actors in front of a Caucasian production staff.
This is so well put together! I loved your commentary, you spoke into being the thoughts that have been floating around unformed in my head since I finished the show. Could not believe you had so few subs when I saw the number, excellent video dude 💗
Thank you for your kind words, really glad you enjoyed the video!
This is by far Hands down my favorite netflix series
You and I had the exact same experience and most of the same feelings on this show. Thanks for the video yo
Glad you enjoyed it!
6:09 you’re wrong. His cousin talks him into letting him run the construction gig with the church and says “you should just let me drive” and then tells the cops on him because 6:09
The Still With You soundtrack sneaking in 😂
Not only netflix, but maybe all time
IT'S UP THERE!!!
Preciate the recommendation! Binged it last night. Amazing!
It's the best show this year on any platform I thought. Loved it
The teenager brother is exactly how. 17 yo boy acts..that was spot on
Are you taking about Paul? Cuz I think he is in his 30s.☠️
Beef would also make for a great anthology come to think of it.
It’s definitely up there
Amazing video! I really appreciate a well thought out video essay
Having Andrew Santino shoot the shit with an Asian dude called Bobby and not having Bobby Lee feels like a true universal phenomenon.
Awesome analysis, you deserve more views!
I feel blessed enough to receive such a nice comment, tysm!
I immediately saw the "I, robot" meme when I read your title.
Beef is far from coming close to writing like House of Cards or Ozark, for example...
i’m boutta start this rn
Simple answer: YES
This show is so good, I have recomended to everyone I know. The way it touches a lot of important topics on ones life in an easy but strong enough way that if don't want to think about it you can still enjoy the show, but if yout to stop and reflect on those things the show becomoes even more special... its just so good from the writing to the acting... I really liked it
Beef is the best show I’ve seen in a long time.
I’m too a movie guy, and never binge shows. But ok Hashimoto, added it to my watchlist….. Let’s see
At first I didn’t watch it thought it would just be a normal dumb show on Netflix but this show was great a24 is on a home run lately.
beef and the midnight gospel sre two different sides of netflix's perfection spectrum
Mayhem is a great movie where steven is the main actor
Man if u guys havent you have to listen to david Choe's stories they're so interesting. He's also the one who made all the title paintings.
I think we can all relate to so many things on this show!
This show helped me with my depression and anxiety I felt so much better and at peace after I finished it need a season 2
short answer, yes
Last episode was the funniest thing I’ve seen in a while
It's impossible to digest
i highly reccomend sorry to bother you i think you’d really enjoy it
It is the best, i watched it when it came out, its amazing and refreshing, no identity politics no bullshit just good stuff, as a southern African i recommend
Great video dude!
Nice jinsang track
It's the greatest show of 2023.
steven yeun is great in the walking dead........this one is another level.....oscar's worth acting performance! ...and damn he can sing!
Liked this show a lot, but Bojack Horseman is still the best Netflix original overall imo
Pound for pound your right
Good vid was sold immediately
Give us season 2!
If a24 is behind it its gonna be fireeeeee
This show was amazing imo.
But I won't lie. . . It took my chimpanzee brain capacity self like three episodes in to realize the title BEEF was referring to the beef between people and not food.
Is Beef the best show? Yes.
Good vid i subbed
loved this show, i would give it a 9.8/10
You should definitely have far more subscribers than this. Great job on the video!
@@ScandalousStars gross, no
Great video man :)
