In a food processor, purée the mung beans with 13⁄4 cups water until smooth.
Transfer to a large bowl and add the pork, kimchi and kimchi pickling liquid, sprouts, salt, scallions, and garlic. Stir to mix well.
Heat 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Working in batches and adding more oil as needed, pan-fry the pancakes, using 3 to 4 tablespoons batter per pancake. Flip each pancake once, and cook until golden, for a total 8 to 10 minutes each. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
Stir the soy sauce and vinegar together in a small bowl to make a dipping sauce.
To serve, you can cut the pancakes in half or in quarters if you wish. Serve with the soy sauce dip on the side.
