We are planning on checking in, taking a shower, going out for a stroll/checking out street food scene, going back to the hotel to sleep for a few hours and depending on how early we can wake up, checking out 1/2 spots before heading back to the airport to board our 1 pm flight.
Hongdae might be a more exciting choice for your evening stroll. However, if you prefer a shopping-centric experience with a wide range of street food options, Myeongdong would be a great fit. You may check other things you can do in Seoul at night

For that limited time, you may also want to consider getting a tour guide to maximize your trip in Seoul and give you recommendations about the place as well as the hotel and transportation. They are more expert on this. I see this guide offers a customized tour in Seoul so maybe you are interested to check
