You will make “Job chae (stirfried noodles)” with this.

    In your Japchae (stir fried noodles with vegetables)tutorial…I think the noodle looks different from starch noodle pictures on this page. It’s similar to the Japanese Shiratake noodle to me. Do koreans eat that as well? If so, what do you call it?

      It’s called “dangmyeon”: 당면 in Korean. I always use these noodles when I make japchae.

    These are apparently made of sweet potato starch. However, here a noodle made from Mung Bean Starch is very easily available(called glass noodle) – is it possible to use these instead of dangmyeon?

      no, I didn’t and I don’t! : ) I always buy it at a store and have never thought about making it.
