Ingredient substitutions

Korean radish
Daikon is the closest common option; it may be milder or more watery.
Shrimp
Firm white fish or mushrooms can work, with a different texture and flavor.
Green onion
Chives or a small amount of leek can work, with a different flavor.
Garlic
Garlic powder works in a pinch but lacks fresh aroma.
Gochugaru
Aleppo pepper is a gentler substitute; crushed red pepper works but is usually sharper and hotter.
