Will the 144 hour free transit still be applied to my case?2. Also, would I be able to visit Suzhou from Shanghai for a day trip during the visa free period?Thank you.

Sue, if you will travel like Brisbane - Incheon - Shanghai - Seoul on the way to Shanghai, you won't qualify for the free transit because it's not a transit. You'll need a visa if you travel like that.
