Combine the garlic, ginger, gochujang, gochugaru, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, brown sugar, ketchup, and a splash of water in a small saucepan. Simmer over medium heat for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until glossy and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.

To finish the wings: toss the hot, seared wings in the sauce to coat, then return them to a 450°F grill for 3–5 minutes, turning, to caramelize the glaze into a sticky lacquer. Top with toasted sesame seeds and sliced scallion.

Deep, saucy, forgiving — the flavors marry in the fridge. This is prep's best friend. Reheat gently with a splash of water or stock to loosen it.
Home: Warm gently in a pan with a splash of water or stock to loosen — it's a braise, it's even better today.
On the go: Microwave covered with a splash of water or stock, ~2 min, stir halfway. Forgiving — it's better on day two.
