check in times for KLM at Seoul ICN
In a few weeks time, I arrive at ICN at 07:00 (separate ticket, oneworld airline) and depart just after midnight on KLM to AMS, so an 18 hour stopover.
Ideally, I would like to to check in baggage very early and take advantage of the lounge facilitlies airside.
Does anyone know if anytime check in with Korean Air is possible, or will I be restricted to check in just a few hours before departure at a dedicated KLM desk.
Thanks for any info.

I'm back from my trip to Seoul, so here is an update on the check in at terminal 2.
I was at the airport early, around 18:45, much earlier than the dedicated KLM check was due to open.
There is a large self service check in and bag drop area for Air France/KLM/Korean Air and I was able to check in at a kiosk and drop bags at that time.
I enquired if it would have been possible to check in much earlier (e.g. morning) and was told yes, it would be possible.
So, unless something was lost in translation, early check in might be possible for KLM at ICN.
