You have understood the process very well. Just few additional details for you to decide whether the entire construction is acceptable for your plans:
- To be eligible for 144 hours visa free transit in Shenzhen, you have to stay for at least 25 hours within Guangdong province before you exit to Hong Kong.
- You will have to book your ferry ticket at CKS - Chu Kong Passenger Transport Company website for Hong Kong Macau Ferry Terminal in advance so that your declared itinerary is South Korea - Shenzhen - Hong Kong in the real sense. You will have to have this ticket (in reality e-confirmation with all the names and passport numbers) in your hand at the moment of check-in in South Korea.
- After your stay in Hong Kong you can return to Shenzhen via Lo Wu / Luohu border crossing using Shenzhen visa on arrival. You are allowed to depart from Shenzhen to South Korea directly by plane.
As you can see, this is all possible, but one huge drawback is the price of Shenzhen VOA for US passport holders that is 956 CNY per person.
