Preheat oven to 425°F. Combine tofu, yam, 1 tbsp vegetable oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper on baking sheet. Roast until tender and brown in places, 20 to 25 minutes.
In medium bowl, massage kale and just 1 tsp sesame oil until darkened and shiny. Add carrot, just 1 tsp sesame seeds, just half the garlic, just 1 tbsp vinegar, and a pinch of salt. In small bowl, whisk together gochujang, sugar, remaining garlic, remaining sesame oil, remaining vinegar, 1 tbsp water, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Make small tear at top of rice bag and microwave bag for 1 minute. (TIP: You can also combine precooked brown rice and 1 tbsp water in small saucepan over medium-high heat. Cover and steam until warmed through, 3 to 4 minutes.)
Divide rice between bowls. Top with roasted yam, tofu, and carrot-kale banchan. Drizzle with gochujang sauce and sprinkle with remaining sesame seeds. 잘 먹겠습니다!
