Begin by cooking the noodles according to the package instructions. Typically, it will take around 5-7 minutes. Once they are done, drain them and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.
While the noodles are cooling, prepare the vegetables. Julienne the cucumber and carrot into thin strips and finely chop the green onion.
In a bowl, make the dressing by mixing together the sesame oil, gochujang, soy sauce, and sugar. Stir until well combined.
Once the noodles have cooled, toss them in the dressing, ensuring all the noodles are coated evenly.
Add the prepared vegetables, tossing everything together gently.
Slice the hard-boiled egg in half and place it on top of the noodles as a garnish. Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top for added flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy while fresh and chilled!
