A friend invited me to his summer house later this summer, so I told him I would if it doesn't overlap with my plans. This is how I stated it:
I’d come, if it doesn't overlap with my scheduled trips. I have a trip to South Korea tentatively planned for the end of August.
Please advise.
Answer
You should say I will.
I'd is short for I would, which implies that you already know you're not coming, because you already know the dates overlap.
(In which case you'd have to make a lot of awkward changes to the rest of the sentence to remain grammatical, but let's not get dragged in to all that).
