And even though I do wish the Thai golden girls will grab the last ticket to Tokyo OG 2020, but frankly I doubt much their chance seeing the KOR progress under Lavarini. Thai team needs some miraculous performance to attend Tokyo 2020!
I wish we could have both 
If Korea were to qualified during the wold qualification, then we would have seen Tomkom, KYK, and Zhuting on the Olympics - Asian volleyball excellence.
Literally this. They will never have a better chance without China and Japan.
South Korea is a tough nut to break, but playing home they MUST win this.
South Korea has been inconsistent lately. I think Thai has a strong chance too. Selfishly, I want Korea to advance. It's most likely Kim's last Olympics so she's definitely going to give it her all in January next year.
If Lee Jaeyoung could play like she did vs Thailand, Korea would definitely get the ticket to Tokyo
Agreed. A lot of people only think of KYK but Lee Jae Young is a great striker too.

KYK + Lee JAeyoung is a deadly combo. If only Korea can find a functional Opp, they will be hard for Thailand to beat.
Speaking of Thailand, will the new golden triangle be playing the Asian Qualification?

Great point. Sorry, but Kim Hee Jin is horrible. She only has big arms but no thinking behind on where or how to hit.
I disagree with the Kim Hee Jin bashing. Haven't seen her yet in this tournament but she had some great matches at VNL

I’m not sure who are you referring as the new golden triangle 
As far as the news goes, Pimpichaya should be back on court soon. She’s already practicing with the team. Hattaya probably won’t be back in time for the qualification though.
Technical director of the Dutch federation Joop Alberda is trying to raise a million euros for the organization of the olympic qualification tournament in January. He should have had the financing on Sunday evening, but has been postponed until Friday.
So they are seriously intrested in hosting the tournament...
The Dutch look good. Hope they can keep up their current form.
Also want Turkey to make it. Man, there's too many interesting teams
I wish both could qualify but let's be fair, no other team in the world has been wronged as much as Thailand in the last decade. Robbed at least twice of a well deserved qualification just because Japan needed the extra help.
South Korea already qualified and couldn't do more than a 4th place with KYK at her best, now it's Thailand's turn. I couldn't handle to see them cry another time.

I think golden triangle is new wave with my favourite girls: Pimpichaya, Ajcharaporn and Chatchu-On

Mine would be Pimpichaya, Ajcharaporn, and Hattaya

here you have your answers. 
I guess mine is more of a golden straight line than a triangle

LMFAO I prefer them as triangle because the position they usually are on court. But Hattaya is my fav too, alongside Thatdao. These two are both very promising backup for Pleumjit.
I just hope all of them can be back together on court. I think the last time that happened was in 2017

there's the teen mb, Tichakorn as well. She only got limited court time during the volley master and VNL, but she did put those little court time to good use.
Pimpichaya has played along the NT vs the Philippines in a friendly tune up game a few days ago. But i don't think she is in form yet? Maybe by January, if she doesn't sustain any new injuries.
Incidentally, "Golden Triangle" is actually one of the world's biggest heroin-producing regions and it's partly located in... Thailand.

Well, and it goes away any chance that South Korea had to qualify
