Tips to make Gochujang Noodles:

Use rice noodles, udon noodles, or even ramen for this recipe.
While using sesame seeds in this recipe, use roasted and toasted sesame seeds. They bring a nutty flavor to the final dish.
There won't be many leftovers, but you can store the noodles in the refrigerator for a day or two.
Reheating the gochujang noodles is best when done in a microwave. If you want to heat on the stovetop, the noodles can start getting sticky and form lumps.
Add vegetables of your choice when making this dish.
The gochujang sauce will be thick; you can add water to make it thinner and adjust the flavors accordingly.
