Host a Korean night
Two tables: a bulgogi ssam night, and a kimchi jjigae pot.
A Korean house is generous with banchan, not with three starches. Bibimbap can be a third lunch in a dolsot. Japchae can join the grill as a side, not as a competing main.

Bulgogi night
Meat, wraps, rice, banchan. Not a second stew as the main.
Bulgogi is the grill. Lettuce or perilla. Ssamjang. Rice. Banchan. Kimchi is already on the table as a side, not a second pot of jjigae unless you are a crowd.
