I made the same recipe about 1 1/2 weeks ago and it turned out pretty spicy. I used 2 cups of hot pepper flakes and mine is a much darker red color than yours.
It may be the brand of hot pepper flakes you used. Some brands make different levels of “heat.” I used “BW” this time but have used “Tae Kyung” and “Wang” in other recipes with similar results.
