I am pretty sure it will show up on the ticket, but I don't know which airline will be able to tell you this with certainty before you buy the ticket. I have had luck using ITA to show this fare code mapping.)

The ICN-SIN seg that is KE-coded will have a separate KE fare basis from the DL fare basis. If you search for the same itin at http://matrix.itasoftware.com (log in as a guest), you should be able to see the fare basis for each segment separately.
