I'm not even sure I can get my boarding pass ~7 hours before the flight (codeshare flight) so I can get airside to access the hotel. What do you guys think is the most efficient way to handle my bags and get to/from the hotel?

My thinking-
Arrive at T4
Drop off bags at storage somewhere landside (T4)
Get boarding pass at Korean Air desk (T4)
Go through security (T4)
Take airside shuttle from T4 to T2 then go to T1
Check in at Aerotel (T1)
Check out of Aerotel (T1)
Go landside (T1)
Take landside shuttle from T1 to T4
Get bags from landside storage (T4)
Check in bags (T4)
Go through security (T4)

I will have tools which means I have to check bags, cannot do carry-on only.

Thanks!
You should be able to early check in.

And going from T4 to T2 should not be an issue on the air side. I've done it before and all they do is check that you have sufficient time to go - usually a couple of hours.
