KE is not DL and doesn't play games like that (almost no other airline is as bad and poorly run as DL). At least not in terms of schedule changes. Though if your KE flight is cancelled, then DL is not going to do anything put you on another airline, unless there is ready X inventory available on an alternate route via a SkyTeam airline and you spoon feed the typical hapless DL res agent the alternate flights.
