Netflix's 'Beef' Season 2, released April 16, centers on a Korean character at the top of the American elite. According to Khan, Youn Yuh-jung plays Chairwoman Park, owner of an exclusive country club.
The show reportedly weaves Korean characters and 'K-beauty' aesthetics into its US narrative, critiquing class conflict and the power of money. Song Kang-ho also appears.
The series, titled '성난 사람들' in Korean, explores the 'naked face of American capitalism' through its characters, per the Korean media report.
Global K-culture fans can now stream the new season on Netflix to see how Korean narratives are integrated into this critique of wealth and power.
