Wilp888, I think you're right that I was just unlucky 2x.

Janus, last week when the kiosk flagged me I was returning from ICN via NRT. The time before when I was flagged at baggage claim, I'm sure it was random as the agent was just randomly picking people after they retrieved their bags.

Boberonicus, your strategy is good of not using the kiosk if the regular immigration line is short.
