Step 1
Whisk gochujang, soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, and garlic in a bowl until smooth.
Step 2
Toss beef cubes with the marinade, coating evenly. Let sit for 5 minutes.
Step 3
Thread beef onto skewers, leaving space between pieces so they char, not steam.
Step 4
Heat a cast iron skillet or grill pan over high heat until it smokes, about 2 minutes.
Step 5
Sear skewers without moving, 2 minutes per side, until edges are blackened and centers stay pink.
Step 6
Transfer to a plate, scatter scallions on top, and serve immediately.
