When Jokes Go Too Far: The Cobra Kai Bite Incident

On the set of Cobra Kai, a lighthearted moment took a serious turn. Martin Kove, known for his role in the show, found himself in a tricky situation. It all started when he playfully bit Alicia Hannah-Kim, his co-star. What he thought was a funny joke, turned out to be not so funny for Alicia. Alicia wasn't laughing. She had a clear bite mark on her arm. It was already bruising and turning blue. This wasn't just a small mark. It was noticeable and hurt her. An officer on set saw the mark and questioned Martin about it. Martin admitted to biting Alicia. He said he thought they were just play fighting, like they often do on set. He didn't think it was a big deal. But Alicia made it clear that it was a big deal to her. She said he had caused her real pain. This incident raises questions about boundaries on set. What might seem like harmless fun to one person, can be hurtful to another. It's important to always respect others' limits, even in a playful environment.
