KE (Korean Air) flies LAX-ICN nonstop, and you can credit to DL. The new seats are pretty decent, and there is one set of flights to/from LA that has them (KE 17). Similarly, OZ (Asiana) offers nonstop flights. Check the appropriate forums -- there's a wealth of information out there.

If you want to take nonstop, then KE is the way to go.
Lie-flat (but slanted) seat, AVOD, good food and beverage, and service.
I'd take a connection at SFO/NRT just to take SQ though.
I don't recommend OZ C as their seat is OLD.

Just flew Korean- make sure to get the new C seats and not the old ones. For flying experience I would however recommend Malaysian Air (although you won't get EQMs) or to earn with UA SQ is indeed a better option. I personally prefer connections as you can opt for a free stopover and often generate more miles.
