Alicia Hannah-Kim reported co-star Martin Kove for allegedly biting her arm during a fan convention, leaving a mark. After greeting him, Kove bit her and subsequently kissed her arm. Hannah-Kim informed her husband, and the couple confronted Kove, who reacted defensively. Though she chose not to press charges, a report was filed for future security. Kove was removed from the event. Hannah-Kim emphasized the seriousness of workplace assault, while assuring fans her experience on Cobra Kai remains positive.
Hannah-Kim expressed an appreciation for those who checked in on her, but also wanted to emphasize how serious workplace assault is. "As you can see, this was a serious incident," she shared in an Instagram video. "No one wants to be attacked at work or anywhere, really. And I don't think anybody would think this is normal or wanted or acceptable, and I just think that when you're confronted with something like this, it's good to stand up for yourself."
Kove allegedly bit Hannah-Kim's arm so hard he nearly drew blood. She had tapped him on the shoulder to say hello, and he grabbed her arm and bit her.
She did not press charges against Kove, but she did have a report filed as a precaution for the future. Kove was asked to leave the convention as a result of the assault.
Hannah-Kim wanted to reassure her fans that her experience on Cobra Kai has been positive, stating, "I think everybody can tell that it's a really good vibe and great cast, and everybody else is delightful."
