If you DO want to stop in Korea, do TPE - ICN // ICN - HNL on the way back. KE awards are round-trip, but you can pay half the miles for a half-round-trip.

I did a similar award last year: SFO-HND // NRT-TPE with a week in Tokyo.
Thanks VegasGambler, I looked at your post a little closer and if I understand what you are saying, I can choose JAL outbound with a stopover in Tokyo, and then KE inbound with a stopover (or layover) in ICN and they would just split the KE fare in half? That would be totally worth it then.

I just tried to look for J availability from HNL to Tokyo on JAL...and it is tough.
