It's a legal connection, MCT int'l to int'l at ICN is 70 minutes for Asiana & 60 min. for KE - on a single ticket and checked luggage should be tagged thru to final destination & transferred, no need to reclaim in transit. No immigration check, just transit security - after West Wing arrival @ T1 onto level 2, busy time of the evening - with moving walkways (depending on your gate)
Follow signs for transit passengers - all pax must clear transit security, shoes on, laptop & tablets out on tray, no liquid/bottled water from flight, etc. (huge bins for "deposits" just before you reach checkpoint, in case forgotten) - have passport & BP in hand. Then, take escalator/elevator up one level to departure (3/F) and look for your gate info on giant monitors - also status display at the Info (??) Counter in the middle around all the duty-free shops. Flights typically board 30 minutes before scheduled departure - probably time for a quickie bathroom stop, etc.
