Are you able to bring bagels into South Korea on a flight?
score:6
According to the Korea Customs Service website, prepared food for personal consumption is not included in the items that must be declared at customs upon arrival, provided that the total value of all items you are bringing in (and will not take back out with you) does not exceed the duty-free allowance of 400 USD.
There are special weight/value restrictions on liquor, cigarettes, perfume, and agricultural/livestock/aquatic products (including medicinal herbs), but bagels are none of these things.
If you do get called aside for a hand inspection, simply explain to the official that they are pieces of bread you are bringing as a gift, and that should be the end of it.

It took a lot of research, but according to TSA policies, Solids food can be brought on a plane:
Solid food items (not liquids or gels) can be transported in either your carry-on or checked baggage. Liquid or gel food items larger than 3.4 oz are not permitted in carry-on baggage and should be placed in your checked baggage if possible
In case you still aren't following, your friend can bring a bagel as long as it's in your carry-on or checked baggage. If the bagel happens to trigger an alarm of some sort, then your friend may not be able to bring it on the plane.
Aditional Notes:
If you don't know what TSA is, it is an abbreviation for Transportation Security Administration. These people are basically the airport security, and the ones who make the rules on what you can and can't bring on a plane.
