  2. In a large mixing bowl combine the pork, garlic, rice wine, season with salt and pepper, and mix well. Set aside.
  3. Place tofu on a fine cotton cloth and squeeze it to remove water from the tofu. Mash the tofu if needed.
  4. Add the noodle, kimchi, tofu, chives, and egg to the bowl with pork mixture and mix well. Season the filling with salt and pepper.
  5. To make half moon shape; Place about 1 1/2 teaspoonful of filling on the wrapper. Dab some water on the edge of wrapper using your finger and fold in half. Pinch the edge to seal tightly.
  6. To make full moon shape; from the half moon, bring the bother ends to the center and over wrap the ends a little, dab the ends with water and seal tightly.
  7. Half moon shape is good for pan-frying and full moon shape is good for boiling or steaming.
  8. Note: Make sure you keep the wrappers covered with damp cloth to prevent them from drying out.
