So, PVG becomes a transit point, kind of.

I have to get my boarding pass and check-in for PVG-ICN-SEA but maybe i can do that at ICN first, before leaving for PVG.

Hope that works, otherwise, i'll have a super tight connection.
Not in the eyes of the people who matter (PRC Border Control and your airline's front line people). In order to qualify as a transit passenger, you need to be flying directly in and out of different countries. And, given the tightness of your connection, I would advise you against pulling the refundable ticket trick.
