'Beef' star Ali Wong and creator Lee Sung Jin dish on that wild finale, their ode to 'The Sopranos,' and whether the show is a one-off or not
It took Lee and the actors a while to figure out how to play this bit of wildness.
“Originally, we were going to have them do impressions of each other,” Lee says. “But we recorded on Zoom and very quickly were like, ‘No, let’s not do that.’ It got kind of weird. But I think in spirit, they were channeling the other. They both did a great job. It was in the edit that I realized stacking the voices [at the start of the scene] would help ease the audience into it. That required really precise ADR work, and they are both Olympians at ADR.
Didn’t the playwright Anton Chekhov once declare that if your female lead masturbates with the aid of a gun in the first act, then your male lead has to get shot in the final act?“We were just trying to figure out the quirks of this character,” Lee explains. “She’s so repressed, she can’t share anything with anyone in her life.
