Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C).
Generously rub the pork shoulder with salt. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large oven-safe pot over medium-high heat.
Sear the pork shoulder on all sides until browned, about 8-10 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
In the same pot, add the remaining tablespoon of oil and sauté the garlic, ginger, and the white parts of the scallions until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
Stir in the red chili paste and white miso paste until combined, cooking for another 2 minutes.
Pour in the chicken broth and soy sauce, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
Return the pork to the pot, cover, and transfer to the oven. Braise until tender, about 1.5 hours.
Remove the pork shoulder from the pot and let cool slightly before shredding with two forks.
Meanwhile, prepare the ramen noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In the same pot, bring the broth to a simmer on the stove. Add the mushrooms and corn, cooking for 5 minutes.
Divide the cooked noodles among four serving bowls. Ladle the hot broth and vegetables over the noodles.
Top each bowl with shredded pork, halved soft-boiled eggs, nori strips, sesame seeds, bean sprouts, and the green parts of the scallions.
Garnish with cilantro before serving.
