*David Choe, star of the Netflix hit “Beef,” has come under fire after a 2014 clip resurfaced recently in which he recalls sexually assaulting a Black female massage therapist.
Choe explained on his now-defunct podcast “DVDASA,” that he coerced the woman into performing oral sex on him. Madame Noir reports that Choe brags about being “a successful rapist” but after catching heat over his remarks, the actor said it was nothing more than “bad storytelling” for “shock value.”
In the resurfaced clips, Choe tells his co-host Asa Akira that he’s “getting turned on just telling this story.”
He continued, “I just take her hand and I put it on my dick. She just holds it there” noting that she was “holding it on her own.”

I will not be finishing the show #BEEFNetflix even if he “made this story up” David Choe is a vile human being for thinking raping a Black woman is a joke. I ????Ali Wong, but I’m out. https://t.co/6ksaST7Cnb

“The thrill of possibly going to jail, that’s what achieved the erection quest,” he stated.
“Ew, you’re basically telling us that you’re a rapist now, and that the only way to get your dick really hard is rape,” Akira says, to which Choe retorts, “Yeah.”
That’s when the other guests ask about the woman’s appearance.
“What the f*ck is wrong with you guys?” Akira asks. “Who cares what she looks like? Dave is telling us he’s a rapist.”
“A successful rapist,” he jokes.
You won’t find the video online so easily now as Choe has filed Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) notices to have all evidence of his creepy persona scrubbed from the internet, Variety reports.
After the podcast aired and drew widespread criticism, Choe said he was telling a fictional story. In a statement, he said at the time, “I am not a rapist. I hate rapists, I think rapists should be raped and murdered. I am an artist and a storyteller and I view my show DVDASA as a complete extension of my art.”
He added, “If I am guilty of anything, it’s bad storytelling in the style of douche.”
