Finally. I hope KE relaxes Morning Calm status requirement from KE-only minimum 30K to KE+DL minimum 30k.

Maybe DL economy fares can start earning some miles on KE...
Currently, only the most expensive DL economy fares can earn miles which is lame.

I think to maintain Morning Calm, it is
1) 30k on KE
Or
2) 30K on KE/partners where at least 20k is KE

So many booking classes are excluded to each other. Should be changed.

Maintaining morning calm outside Korea is extremely hard. I think KE is the only airline in SkyTeam who has a heavy own metal mandatory that goes as high as 60-67%?

Excellent news. They will also all be using the new terminal at ICN airport - KE, DL, AF, KL. It will open in October.

No. Just like now, it will be used by all other airlines for check-in process.

For boarding gates, current terminal will be used by FSCs that are not one of KE, DL, AF, KL.
LCCs will check-in at current terminal but board at the passenger terminal.

BTW, reliable source says Czech Airlines also agreed to move to the new terminal, but I am not sure about that yet.
