"Budae" means "military unit," and this dish apparently got its start as something cooked using a military helmet as a pot. And it seems it originates from Pohang in South Korea, the region I was sent to by my company. I tried making it in a frying pan.

Just keep simmering.
The real version has Spam in it, but it's a bit expensive, so I left it out this time.
Please add whatever ingredients you like.
This is on the spicy side, so adjust the amount of gochujang and chili pepper powder to taste. Recipe by Ibechou.
