I prefer to stay in the terminal during the layover and book the transit hotel if needed.
That should not be an issue. We had a layover in ICN for exactly 24hr 15 min. We were flying from YYZ - KUL in August.
All we did was pack an overnight carry on, arrived in ICN, clear immigration, took AREX express to Myeogdong for a night of street food. Hotels were plentiful and cheap.
Next day just return back to airport and pass security and immigration. (Luggages were checked right thru to KUL and boarding pass for ICN - KUL was also printed in YYZ).
Did a bit more shopping in ICN and off we went to KUL.
