Based on the announced information, the Chinese is sending their top squad to the competition. They will be the favorite, as always, to top the podium in most of the events in front of the home crowd. Japan and Korea are other strong teams to watch. For Team Japan, despite not sending their no. 1 players Jun Mizutani and Kasumi Ishikawa, the young players, potential Olympians of Tokyo 2020, are very capable of medalling. We might miss Korea's legendary chopper, Joo Sae-Hyuk from the men's field but the return of the veteran in the women's side, also a chopper,Kim Kyungah might be one of the highlights of the competition. The mysterious team DPRK will show up in the competition! It will be interesting to see whether the bronze medalist in Rio, Kim Song I can prove herself again in the competition. With lots to watch, we shall not overlook the potential of team Hong Kong, Singapore and Chinese Taipei too. This is the few competitions held before this year's Worlds. It is a great opportunity to see where everybody is up to in the Asian Championships.
