Asking for a quick look at a Oneworld Global Explorer itinerary

I am almost sure that I will have to do without one of the destinations I want to visit within this itinerary (because I cannot get it under 34,000 miles), but perhaps someone has a good idea, so let me post it anyway:

ICN-xHKG-FCO-BCN-xMAD-MIA-UIO - surface sector - LIM-SCL-IPC-PPT-xAKL-NAN-SYD-AYQ-xCNS-xNRT-ICN

Unfortunately, in the Great Circle Mapper, I always end up at 34,230 miles. There is a nonstop BA flight ICN-LHR which would solve my problem, but unfortunately, that flight only seems to operate during the summer, but my trip would start in October. Of all the destinations listed, I do not care about HKG, CNS, NRT.

Right now, the only possibility I see to get below 34,000 is to just buy a (hopefully cheap) RT ticket SYD-AYQ-SYD and then take the nonstop flight SYD-ICN and leave the AYQ-CNS-NRT detour out of the RTW ticket.

Do you have any other ideas?

Also, do you see any other problems/rule violations with this itinerary?

Thanks!

P.S.: Here you can see how the itinerary looks in the Great Circle Mapper... http://makeashorterlink.com/?Y352212C4
