It doesn't get any better than this. This marinade is fantastic. But here's a few cosmetic suggestions to make it even more authentic: First, add three chopped green onions. Second, add one onion, thinly sliced lengthwise. However, I wouldn't dream of suggesting anything about the actual marinade, since it is absolutely perfect. This dish is the pride and joy of Koreans (and their national dish), and I'm sure you'll understand why when you try it! * A friend of mine who also makes this dish always has the most soft, tender beef. After years of badgering, I finally got her to tell me her secret. She adds a tiny amount of fresh, crushed kiwi, less than 1/8 tsp to 2 lbs of beef. I was skeptical, but gave it a shot. I can tell you that it really does work! It was melt in your mouth delicious. Don't be tempted to use more, or you'll end up with a powdery beef mush.

Very tasty. The flavor is just like the stuff in Korean Restaurants. I used flanks steak instead of ribeye. It was cheaper, and it worked just fine. I recommend freezing the meat prior to slicing, so you can get the pieces as thin as possible. THIN IS KEY for this recipe. Also, you don't need to marinate 12-24 hours...2 hours is plenty. Overall, excellent recipe.
