Step 1
Whisk gochujang, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and sugar in a small bowl until smooth.
Step 2
Divide warm rice between two bowls. Arrange japchae, cabbage, lettuce, and pickled peppers on top in small clusters.
Step 3
Heat 1 tbsp neutral oil in a skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 90 seconds.
Step 4
Crack both eggs into the skillet and fry sunny-side up until whites are set but yolks still jiggle, 3–4 minutes.
Step 5
Slide one fried egg onto each rice bowl, centering it on top.
Step 6
Drizzle gochujang sauce over each bowl. Mix everything together and serve immediately.
