===== Directions =====
  - Mix 1 Tbsp. scallion, 2 Tbsp. soy sauce, vinegar, and gochugaru in a small bowl. Set dipping sauce aside.
  - Mix pork, 1 tsp. garlic, sesame oil, and remaining 1 tsp. soy sauce in a small bowl. Chill for 30 minutes or up to 1 day.
  - Drain beans, reserving 1 cup soaking liquid. Purée beans and 1/2 cup soaking liquid in a blender, adding more water by tablespoonfuls if necessary, until mixture is a thick, slightly chunky paste. Transfer to a large bowl. Add 3/4 cup scallions, 1 tsp. garlic, kimchi, and chile to bean purée. Mix well; season batter with salt. Stir in pork mixture.
  - Heat 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil in a large nonstick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, spoon 1/4-cupfuls of batter into skillet, spreading each out to 3 1/2"–4" rounds. Cook, adjusting heat if browning too quickly and adding more oil between batches, until fritters are golden brown and cooked through, 2–3 minutes per side.
  - Serve pancakes with dipping sauce and Pickled Pears.
