Sorry, I do not know about bus schedule but I suppose the shuttle bus is arranged according to flight landing. K1 or K2 is like city bus, maybe around every 20min. To buy train ticket, you do not have to do it from each departure station. You can buy tickets for all trips at same station together.

The station should open around 5am or at least 5:30am. I think there is shuttle bus between this station and airport but may not easy to find. You can ask the local people for direction or use taxi directly if you are tight in time.
