Step 1
Whisk soy sauce, sesame oil, gochugaru, garlic, brown sugar, and black pepper in a bowl.
Step 2
Add pork belly slices to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Let sit for 5 minutes.
Step 3
Heat a cast iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat until a water droplet sizzles on contact.
Step 4
Working in batches, arrange pork slices in a single layer without crowding. Do not move them.
Step 5
Sear 3–4 minutes until edges curl and char marks appear. Flip and sear the other side 2–3 minutes.
Step 6
Transfer cooked pork to a platter. Repeat with remaining meat.
Step 7
Drizzle with any remaining marinade from the bowl. Scatter white scallion whites over the top.
Step 8
Garnish with green scallion tops. Serve immediately with steamed rice and banchan.
