If so, I think you'll be fine; if not, I can't see them moving heaven and earth to accommodate you
I'm certainly able to book it, so I think I should be able to assume that OZ is permitting it.

As for 'moving heaven and earth,' I don't know about that, but as an incoming F passenger on a tight international connection I've been met plane side by an agent any number of times -- most recently ANA, arriving behind schedule at NRT, with what had become a very tight connection to PEK. Agent came on the plane, gathered four of us and took us in a van to our connecting aircraft.

I've not been in such a situation with OZ, so I'm curious if they handle such situations similarly at ICN.
