Swimswam released a list with 9 men and 3 women. Besided the 10 listed above (albeit the number 9 on the title lol) it includes Kim Jihoon (M) and Hur Yeonkyng (W for the mixed relay)

 

Not really sure why they would not take a 4th to the 4x200m freestyle (KIM Younghyeon). Who would be the 4th?

Kim Minseop might be the logical choice out of the options listed

I've figured it out. Kim Younghyeon was selected as the butterfly swimmer for the medley relay. The Korean federation will wait for a bit to select any remaining 4x200m freestyle relay swimmers because they want to see if any of the 4th-6th place finished can go 1:46 so they can rest their best swimmers in the heats.

Wang Changhao split 50.68 at the Asian Games last year so I wouldn’t be too sure about that. But barring a DQ they should be on the podium. 

Yeah, I'd have the US and China currently dueling out for gold with GBR currently heading the pack for bronze. There's obviously lots that could change before the sumemr but that's where I'd put my money if I were a betting man right now.

Wait and see what Guy does in the 100 fly. He looked very good in the 100 free just now and the fly is usually his better 100 event.

Jimmy's scratching the 100m Free final tonight, which does suggest that he's even more focused on the fly and 200m free than ever.

 

He's obviously a superstar for what he's done for GBR over the years already - his reaction to the gold in Tokyo is hands down one of my favourite GB Olympic moments of all time - but I'm not convinced that unless he's become Caleb Dressel overnight that it will get us atop the podium.

 

If everyone swims to their potential, Xu and Pan are better than Morgan/Richards. Qin hasn't yet beaten Peaty at his best but he's on the rise and Peaty is not yet back to his absolute imperious best. I'm not going to call that one either way right now. So Jimmy would have to absolutely clobber them in the fly. I think he can beat them, but I'm not sure by enough.

 

The US is the same - Armstrong or Murphy are both ahead of Morgan. Peaty ahead of Fink and the freestyle probably a tie. Dare Rose is probably a match at least for Jimmy. The great unknown there is Dressel obviously.

 

Obviously, there's a bunch of things that could change - an injury for any of the teams could change things drastically. And form is never a guarantee, not to mention the constant risk of DQs.

 

GBR is absolutely capable of standing atop the podium. But it isn't something I'd be putting money on right now. However, we've definitely looked closer as a result of this week than we did even a month ago!
