    ts beyond time for japan and korea to find commanality and join

    Good luck with that. Especially the older generations that still hate each other. Add to that whenever the japanese right or Korean left want to stir shit up with their nationalist bases, the opposite country is the go-to. Previous agreements etc. be damned.

    I mean. italy, france, england, and germany. They were not always so chummy and now the uk is not even part of the biggest and earliest members.

    I mean.....England and France will always hate each other. It's just sometimes they're also allies. Allies who side eye each other.

    We don't hate each other. I'd describe our relationship more like that of two rival siblings who bicker and argue and get weirdly competitive about just anything, but ultimately know they're family. As a frenchman I can recognize that we love you, you British pricks

    The older generation will die out eventually. Japan can speed up the process by apologizing for everything already

    It's not obvious to me that even if the two countries would be willing to do so that there would be enough strength to have any relevance related to China, so I'm not sure how viable it would be

    The idea is japan, korea, taiwan, singapore, phillipinese, thailand, and maybe all the way down to australia is the eu and china is essentially their russia. It would have to be all democracies so likely not viet nam would have to massively change to be a part.
