Step 1
Boil salted water in a pot. Add noodles and cook until tender, ~4 minutes. Reserve 1/4 cup cooking water, then drain and rinse under cold water.
Step 2
Fill a small pot with water and bring to a boil. Gently lower eggs into water and cook for 6 minutes until jammy, then transfer to ice water.
Step 3
Slice cucumber into thin matchsticks or use a vegetable peeler to make ribbons. Set aside.
Step 4
Mix gochujang and chili crisp in a large bowl. Add 2 tbsp of the reserved pasta water to loosen into a sauce.
Step 5
Add cooled noodles to the sauce and toss until evenly coated, adding more pasta water if too thick.
Step 6
Divide noodles between bowls. Top with cucumber, halved eggs, and a scatter of sesame seeds. Serve cold.
