For a richer broth, consider using chicken or pork broth as a base instead of water. Adjust the amount of chile sauce to your spice preference. Feel free to add other toppings like sliced mushrooms, nori seaweed, or bamboo shoots.

Make broth base: Combine water, onion, garlic, and ginger in a large stock pot and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to maintain an easy simmer (40 minutes).
While broth simmers, prepare the eggs: Fill a medium saucepan with water. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer. Gently lower eggs into simmering water one at a time. Cook until yolks are barely set (7 minutes). Remove eggs from hot water, run under cold water until cool, and peel. Halve eggs lengthwise, place on a plate, and season with salt and pepper.
Prepare noodles: Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil in preparation for cooking noodles. Reduce heat to a simmer.
Infuse the broth: Use a slotted spoon or long-handled strainer to remove garlic, ginger, and onion from the broth in the stock pot; discard vegetables. Add soy sauce, sake, chile sauce, sugar, sesame oil, and salt; stir well. Cover the stock pot loosely and simmer to allow flavors to meld (10 to 20 minutes).
Cook noodles: Return simmering water to a boil. Cook noodles in boiling water uncovered, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender yet firm to the bite (1 to 3 minutes). Drain and divide noodles between 4 large bowls.
Cook seafood: Add shrimp and scallops to simmering broth. Cook until opaque (3 to 5 minutes).
Assemble: Ladle finished broth into the bowls to barely cover noodles. Add equal amounts of shrimp and 1 scallop to the center of each bowl. Place a portion of bean sprouts on the side of each bowl. Place 2 soft-boiled egg halves, yolks-up, resting on noodles in each bowl; keep eggs above broth. Garnish each bowl with scallions.
