Can either go directly TG A380 or BKK-ICN TG 747 and then ICN-FRA OZ A380.

It's an extra 12 detour (about 6 hours to ICN and a 6 hour stopover at ICN) but I don't mind.
I'm asking from the experience perspective which would be a better option?
There's no difference in the amount of miles needed.

Thanks.
This seems to be too much even for a hard-core flyer talker... Why would anyone sane spent extra 12 hours on 11hour 35 minutes flight is beyond my comprehension...

The TG F seat is solid on the A380. Service is, as is typical with TG, hit or miss. But still not worth the inconvenience and time of the connecting route.
