I think this needs an asterisk, pretty sure South Korea and the Philippines would be happy if Japan and China somehow simultaneously destroyed each other.
Edit: astrix to asterisk. Sorry, English isn’t my first language. I mean it’s been my primary for nearly 30 years, but it’s still a bitch sometimes.
The average SK citizen doesn’t really hate the Japanese, they just want their damn artifacts back. After all, it’s difficult to say the largest instantaneous loss of life in human history wasn’t punishment enough.
Philippines would not want to see Japan hurt. We are taught about the ugly history for most of our childhood but the general public is pro-Japan in the present. Pop culture aside, they funded projects and research without much debt traps and is curently much less evil than what China is doing these past decades.
That’s understandable, i guess you guys wouldn’t have the historic animosity. Plus, they probably aren’t still attempting to do historic revisionism on your entire country’s existence.
