Thank you for all the info. I was able to book the following.
PHX-LAX US
LAX-ICN OZ (Dest)
ICN-HKT TG (Stop Over)
HKT-ICN TG
ICN-LAX OZ
LAX-PHX US
All in business class for 160,000 miles for 2 people. I was wishing for 180K but when agent told 160K, I did not question her

By the way, decided to go to BKK as a day trip separately if we get bored in HKT. Was hold for about 1.5 hours before ticketing. But all good in the end. Thank you all for great info and ideas.
