Instructions
 

Prepare the Sauce: In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, and gochujang until well combined. Set aside.

          Serve: In serving bowls, place a generous scoop of cooked sticky rice and top it with the Korean ground beef mixture. Garnish with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
