A week later I went. The woman actually opened my bag and rifled through everything and did a quick count. When my son went, she just asked him how many he had and put the sticker on his bag without actually counting them.

So it seems how much they care is pretty inconsistent. I get the sense that they just want to stop the Chinese resellers from trying to take hundreds of masks.
Also know that, at least at ICN - the bag Xray people will check and pull them out. Of course at other airports like USA they probably have 0 clue about the rules and don't give one flying you know what haha
