UA apparently also does an immediate turnaround from ICN. It will be interesting to see whether the UA flights are suspended too.
And AC has been doing this since last year. Flight number is the same. Tech stop at ICN, crew change and AFAIK, short time on the ground in PVG. AC has a lot of cargo flights into ICN so I assume crews can DH if needed.

Perhaps DL does not have the pax load (or cargo below deck) to make it all work.
