The short answer

Any traveller planning to buy a SIM right after landing at Incheon Airport can find a KT roaming counter near two different arrival halls, with different opening hours at each. A passport or alien registration certificate is required to buy, and data-only pricing runs from a 1-day plan up to a 30-day plan, checked against the current KT roaming listing.
