The ex-China offers are advertised as valid until Nov 30th (and indeed are still available)

Or not permitted because the destination of the first flight into/out of China is KUL in all cases?
Alas this would not work - the Chinese authorities only care about the arrival and departing flights, so something like country1-KUL-PVG-KUL-country2 does not count as an international transit.

I haven't been able to find any way to get a trip including a stay in ICN for less than around 10000 CNY (1500 USD approx). If the goal though is to get 500 TPs for less than 1000 USD then you can *almost* do this with:
PVG - KUL - SIN - KUL - PVG (360 TPs at 3268 CNY (498 USD)
SIN - KUL - PEN - KUL - SIN (160 TPs at 3412 CNY (517 USD)
(total of 1015 USD). Prices and availability as seen using Google flights.
