Steps

1. In a bowl, combine ground beef, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and black pepper. Mix well and let marinate for 15 minutes.
2. While the beef is marinating, prepare the gochujang mayo by mixing gochujang and mayonnaise in a small bowl. Set aside.
3. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Form the marinated beef into two patties.
4. Cook the patties on the grill or skillet for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired doneness.
5. Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster for 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
