I tried to make it look pretty but the jjigae did not wanna work with me. Overall though, it’s a little bit more oily than what I was initially going for, so I’ll be more watchful of that. The taste is great though. The perfect mix of spicy, sweet, and sour.

Update, it’s definitely delicious. I’ll be making and improving on this in the future!
I agree that it looks too oily. I’m guessing you used pork?
My recommendation is if you’re for example using pork belly, trim the outer layer of fat off. You can save it for later and render it down into lard. If you’re using ground meat, get the 90/10.
Also if you haven’t, use more near-overripe kimchi juice as your base.
A lot of times (especially if I’m feeling lazy) I’ll just use bean sprout dashi and throw in a can of tuna (in water not oil).
