The title says it really, any information about whether it's likely? Or any insights etc.
Thank you:)

right now, i doubt it.
anime is finally getting mainstream (and so is k-pop kind of? only took like 20 years lol). but it's still not as popular as other things like marvel movies.
there is some overlap between anime fans in reading chinese web novels and korean webtoons, but i don't think that most people know that chinese animation (donghua) or korean animation even exist.
right now, it's just too early. maybe like 10 years in the future when anime is hopefully more common. and by then, im sure that other chinese or korean animations will come out that will be cooler. hopefully the king's avatar will remain popular by then that an english dub (or at least a re-make since tbh the animation is a bit wonky but i heard that this animation company is brand new so maybe it will be better looking).
tbh i want the korean webtoon "i dont want this kind of hero" to be animated since i think that it would fit right in with the trend of realistic superhero societies that is happening. but i doubt it since it took kpop like 20 years to finally get on mainstream us tv, and as for us' webcomics and independent artists, i doubt that most people even know that webcomics exist/what they are, let alone webtoons on LINE. altho homestuck somehow got a deal with viz so now's it's being published as regular hardcover books.

TL;DR anime isn't even mainstream enough, i doubt that donghua will be mainstream enough to get english dubbing companies to do it. maybe in 10 years?
(also im only on like chapter 47 of the king's avatar novel. out of like 1700 chapters or something lol.)
(also here's a wiki link about donghua: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_animation)

no... i've used to watch Chinese kung fu movies as a kid so i'm used to the Chinese voice acting. to me it's just as good as Japanese. same thing for Korean. i've played Korean mmo's and i like the Korean voice acting just as much as Japanese

I also want to know if a dubbed version will be released anytime soon, the original was great just in Chinese with subs, but I want a dubbed since I'm not much of a subtitle reader. Also I barely know any Chinese so the voicing throws me off of the subtitles when I hear anything familiar xd
