I can check in for my AA flight online and print my boarding pass in ICN. might help with making the 40 minute cut off if the flight is late.
Both UA and AA maintain recheck counters at T5. So you should be able to recheck your bags and get your onward boarding pass.

But, like legalalien, ORD is my home airport so I don't have personal experience doing this.
