The Chinese Taipei team defeated the Philippines at the Taipei Peace Hall at home on the 20th and won the second win in the qualifying round, plus it had defeated Hong Kong at home last year, so Taiwan won the third place in the group regardless of victory or defeat against Hong Kong on the 23rd, which also means that it can participate in the wild card match that will debut in March.

Raymond, Chen Youwei, Lin Xinkuan, and Lin Zheng did not play in the battle against the Philippines, so the 4 players were registered in the battle against Hong Kong, and the 4 people added Lin Tingqian, Lu Junxiang, Gao Baikai, A Bass, Ma Jianhao, Gao Jinwei, Zhou Guiyu and You Aizhe. As for Liu Zheng, he decided to suspend the army first due to his injury, and Chen Guanquan, Zeng Xiangjun, and Lan Shaofu will not play.
