About:Chinese Embassy in South Korea

I am an American living in South Korea and my wife, daughter and I are flying from Incheon to Hong Kong on Air China with a 4 hour layover in Beijing and the return trip from Hong Kong back to Incheon on Air China with just under 12-hour layover in Beijing once again. If we are not leaving the airport's secure area, are we still required to obtain transit visas? I have heard that we do and read something where we are not required to do so. Need something definitive on this.

yes, you don't need a transit visa for 4 hours layover or 12 hours layover, but you can't leave the Beijing airport.
