KE should not deny boarding since the OP is transiting and a visa is not necessary to transit in BOM. The best thing to do would be to ask them to interline the bags through to DAR at check-in in ICN.
I agree with you, however the only concern is the OP is travelling on two seperate tickets, if it was on a single ticket than I guess nothing to worry about, otherwise it's best to re-confirm with KE, rather than have problems during check in. As the previous posters have suggested they might need to collect baggage and re-check it, if KE does not interline, and hence then they may need to clear immigration. If the OP does not have checked baggage, I am sure BOM would have facilities to stay airside & connect with QR ??
