Hilton Honors is currently advising members through a pop-up window that the program will no longer partner with Asiana from the end of this month, precisely by May 31, 2025.
Hilton members who, for whatever reason, wish to transfer some points to Asiana Miles will have to do so before this date, or it will no longer be possible.

Hilton Honors to airline miles transfers were never particularly valuable but it raises eyebrows that Asiana will suddenly be dropped with you a few weeks notice.
This is what Hilton now displays on their website and app:
Of course, Asiana has been taken over by Korean Air, but it’s uncertain what caused this sudden exit. Asiana’s site still features Hilton as a partner, but I wouldn’t give too much credence to the accuracy of OZ’s website anyway, as they always take a long time to amend information.
For what it’s worth, the ratio to transfer Hilton Honors points to Asiana Club is 10:1, meaning you transfer 10,000 points and you get 1,000 miles. Absolutely horrible!
Hilton points are best used for Hilton award stays at certain hotels that are still quite valuable to redeem. If you want to transfer hotel points to miles, then Marriott is the way to go.
Conclusion
Hilton Honors will cease its partnership with Asiana to transfer points out in exchange for miles. The lst day when this feature is active will be May 31st by the end of the day.
The message displayed on the Hilton page only gives details about the points transfer; it doesn’t say if Hilton will end any other partnership or cooperation with the airline. There are multiple ways Hilton Honors and airline programs are linked, other than a direct block-by-block points transfer.
Hopefully, we don’t see more Asiana partnerships being cut off, although I never actively moved points there. For a while, I was eyeing their lifetime program, but when the merger was announced, I gave up on it.
