The comparison of diplomatic approaches between China, Japan, and South Korea sparks heated discussions, with the behavior of Chinese diplomats drawing attention.

As soon as the Japanese saw this photo posted by a South Korean, their emotions were all over the place! A South Korean netizen posted an official photo of Lee Jae-myung's visit to China. In the corner of the official photo, the South Korean netizen noticed Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs Director General Liu Jinsong. Our Asian Affairs Director General was smiling and had a refined posture. The South Korean netizen published a photo of our Liu Jinsong Director General with his hands in his pockets sending off Japan's Director General of the Asia and Oceania Department, Kimi Masahiro, as a comparison, and commented: "Look at this, the orphan of Northeast Asian diplomacy - Japan."

Evidently, the meaning conveyed by the South Korean netizen is clear. Chinese diplomats are not ignorant of diplomatic etiquette, but Japan is not worthy of receiving a warm reception from China. How bad must Japan's behavior be for Chinese diplomats to feel so angry? In fact, at that time, Japanese media extensively publicized this photo, criticizing our Liu Director General as "arrogant" and "rude," and right-wing elements in Japan even released many maliciously edited photos. But now, South Korean netizens have vindicated us. When the Japanese saw this photo, they obviously felt uneasy.

As the saying goes, "When friends come, offer wine; when enemies come, take up arms." What Japan chose deserves the treatment it receives from us. Some netizens commented that South Korea's diplomacy is truly clever. Dealing with one China and one America is something South Korea can't afford to provoke. Why not just stay calm, avoid trouble, and earn money comfortably? Li Jae-myung clearly knows what is best for South Korea's interests.

As for Takahashi Hayami, she is completely stubborn, provoking China without understanding her own strength, thinking she is very smart, but in reality, she has no idea where she stands. Wise countries find a balance between the US and China, playing both sides. Takahashi Hayami has no such skills, and ultimately, the whole country of Japan pays the price. Obviously, this comparison of the photo is also a reflection of the two countries' diplomatic capabilities.
