What is an acceptable gochugaru substitution?

Question

Or is there one?

Gochugaru is not terribly hot. You could substitute almost any flaky dried pepper although you might want to poke out the seeds.

In a more serious note ...Aleppo pepper, chile de arbol powder (use less)

Maybe Aleppo or Maras pepper?
