Add kimchi, ramen noodles, rice cakes, and 1" slices of green onion and cook for additional 3 to 4 min. Press noodles into broth to ensure even cooking (don't stir or it will disturb presentation look).
When noodles are almost cooked, add fish cake triangles, and cheese and continue to cook for 2 to 3 min.

If the broth gets soaked up, add water sparingly until it gets back to a stew liquid level.
