If you're worried about boiling over, placing chopsticks across the pot while on low heat will more effectively prevent the foam from rising.
The key to making the egg garnish is to cook it using only the residual heat after preheating the pan and turning off the heat, as cooking over direct heat can easily burn or make it too thick.
After cooking, rinse the somyeon noodles vigorously in cold water until the starch is removed, and drain as much water as possible to prevent the broth from becoming bland and to keep the noodles chewy.
