It depends on what you want and when you are going.
Singapore is probably a little easier to get around to the main places, is warm year-round, and has really good food choices. English is an official language too, so you don't have to worry about language.
Seoul has more interesting things to see (IMO), but getting around to them will probably take a bit more time. Also, if you don't know Korean, it is a little bit tougher than Singapore, although it isn't impossible by any means for an English-speaker to get by. I've been to Seoul before and after learning Korean and had a great time both times. But it can get really cold in the winter.
I don't think you can go wrong with either.

SIN has multiple left luggage facilities both street and airside. I've used one at ICN in the departure floor back left corner as well.
You wanted the Gilligan's Island 3 hour tour? I've heard bad things about that one.
See above, there's also one on departures level.

either seats are not release yet... or just booked.. but having a hard time finding a good miles saver route from SGN - IAH. SGN-SIN easy, SGN-ICN easy, SIN-IAH not so much without much delay and some still have to go thru ICN.
