Do I need Korea Visa when transit at Incheon Airport, as an Indonesian citizen?
I'm travelling from London (UK) to Jakarta and using 2 different airlines (2 separate tickets - non connecting flight), from London to Incheon using Asiana (1 ticket), and from Incheon to Jakarta using SQ/Singapore airlines (1 ticket) and have to layover at Incheon about 8 hours. Do I need a Korea visa if I have to transfer/change the airlines? Or can I change airlines without visa? I'm an Indonesia passport holder

Whenever I fly through Incheon Airport from the US to China and Hong Kong, I never need to go through customs/immigration. I usually stay within the airport and do a transfer, which does not require a visa.
If you exit the airport, then you will need to go through customs/immigration. And Indonesian passport holders will need a visa to visit Korea (exit the airport).

If the two flights are on seperate tickets, then the OP will probably need to collect and recheck baggage landside. Which will mean passing through Korean immigration.

Some countries require certain people to have a visa even if they remain airside, eg the UK's Direct Airside Transit Visa, so simply remaining airside isn't always enough to avoid visa requirements
