Seoul 7 day itenerary

Trip is in 14 days—so excited! I haven’t been to Korea since I was 8 or 9. We’re a group of 7 arriving on the 18th. We have transportation from Incheon booked through Viator. We’re planning to get a 7-day Climate Card on Day 2 so we can use the subway, including for the trip back to the airport. The cuisine type for each day is set, while specific restaurants are tentative—we’re ready to pivot if needed but will stick to the same cuisine theme.

I’m just trying to fine-tune the itinerary one last time and get some last-minute thoughts.
