- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Preparation Steps
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large wok or frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Add the beef strips and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from the wok and set aside.

- Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the wok and cook for an additional minute, stirring constantly.
- Add the Korean glass noodles to the wok and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, until they start to soften.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the gochujang sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, and red pepper flakes. Pour the sauce into the wok and stir to combine.
- Return the beef strips to the wok and stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes, until everything is well coated with the sauce and heated through.
- Season the stir-fry with salt and black pepper to taste, then serve immediately.
- Garnish with green onions and toasted sesame seeds, if desired.
