J-Mart offers ready-to-cook marinated meats, including pork gochujang bulgogi.  Only 9,900 won for a pack, enough for 4 servings – way cheap.

TIP: when in doubt, always go for the one involving gochujang, which can overpower any inherent flaws in the dish.  

The package came with sliced scallions, to which I added mushrooms and chicory.  I also added a dash of sesame oil just before serving.

TIP: always add a dash of sesame oil, which provides an extra layer of rich nuttiness, just prior to serving any Korean marinated meat dish.

Served with steamed rice, it made for a quick, easy, tasty mid-week meal – at just 2,475 won per person.
