ICN Lounge

Does anyone know what the plan is for Emirates first/business class lounges now that Asiana is merging with Korean Air?

My understanding is that in the past, Emirates sent business/first class passengers to Asiana's business/first class lounges in T1. With Korean Air acquiring Asiana, my understanding is that all of Asiana's lounges in T1 will be closed down/abandoned and they will move over to T2 (where Korean Air operates)

What does that mean for Emirates premium cabin passengers? I also know that T1 and T2 in ICN are pretty apart and there currently doesn't exist post-security connections (as far as I know) between the two terminals. Is the expectation that Emirates premium cabin passengers originating out of ICN will not have any lounge to go to at the airport now?

I doubt very much that anyone knows here what is happening? I would reach out to Emirates and check your flight and Im sure they would advise you correctly.
