Step 1
Pat ribeyes dry. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
Step 2
Heat a heavy skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 3
Sear steaks 90 seconds per side without moving. Crust should be golden-brown; center stays rare.
Step 4
Reduce heat to medium. Add butter, gochujang, honey, and soy sauce to the pan.
Step 5
Scatter scallions around the steaks. Tilt pan and baste meat with the glaze for 2 minutes.
Step 6
Divide warm rice between bowls. Top with a steak, scallions, and extra glaze. Sprinkle sesame seeds.
