transferring Asiana miles/status miles to another *A carrier?

I switched to Asiana Club from Mileage Plus when the latter became a revenue based frequent flyer program. Now I am half way to *A Gold, yet Asiana will switch to Sky Team. Is there a way to transfer my hard earned (during the pandemic) miles/ status miles to another *A carrier or are they gone and forgotten (I never fly Sky Team) ?

Cheers!

They are gone and forgotten unfortunately. But you should have some time before the switch occurs so you may be able to use the miles.

only a very few FFP allow for transfer of points, and OZ is not one of them. But two comments -

Firstly, even if the OZ program amalgamates to the KE Skyteam, it'll still be a few years yet, so you've got time to use whatever miles you've accumulated.
Secondly, if you're only halfway to *G on OZ, then you're only at about 20k miles, which in the big scheme of things, isn't a lot, nor gets you much.

I don't think this has been updated recently, however there are hardly any airlines which allow you to convert out of their program, with the limited ones that do suffering from significant transfer losses into the program you want.

If Asiana does leave Star, you may find other airlines offering to match status, but you would need to maintain status until then.
