The United States and China,... are already clashing over an international tribunal's ruling on the South China Sea dispute.
Beijing refuses to accept it,... but Washington says it's final and legally binding.
And according to our Kwon Soa, South Korea,... is stuck in the middle.
The United States says the ruling on the South China Sea dispute is "final and legally binding" for both China and the Philippines.
The tribunal ruling in The Hague on Tuesday brought victory to the Philippines -- which filed the case three years ago -- as well as other Southeast Asian countries involved in the dispute.
U.S. State Department spokesperson John Kirby said the U.S. hopes and expects that China and the Philippines will comply with the ruling andor and called for all parties to refrain from provocative statements or actions.
He said the U.S. has persistent concerns about China's militarization of the South China Sea.
"We have seen some signs in recent weeks that some of that activity continues and we have been, again, very consistent, very clear with our Chinese counterparts about our ongoing concerns in that regard."
Those concerns may linger though,... and even grow into bigger diplomatic rows,... as China continues to claim that it was the first one to "discover, name, explore and exploit the South China Sea islands and their surrounding waters."
According to the ruling,... China has no historic or economic basis for its claim to about 90 percent of the South China Sea.
South Korea is not directly involved,... but experts say it has its own concerns.
"I think the U.S. could ask South Korea or Japan to take a joint patrol in the South China Sea. I think the Korean government should be cautious about taking the policy about the South China Sea, the boys season 5 episode 7 frenchie because the Korean government's actions for or against one super power would result in the opposition of the other super power country."
For now, the government is maintaining its ambiguous stance on the matter.
"South Korea's Foreign Ministry said Wednesday it's taken notice of the ruling and hopes that through it, the South China Sea dispute will be settled through peaceful and creative diplomatic efforts.
