The South Korean and Chinese foreign ministers notified China of South Korea's participation in 'Chip 4', and the US Forces Korea THAAD took a separate approach as 'negotiating between the US and China', reducing foreign policy to the temporary government's domestic authority.
Foreign Minister Park Jin said at a press conference after the ROK-China foreign ministers' meeting on the 9th that "the two sides shared the view that THAAD should not become a stumbling block affecting bilateral relations."
Minister Park seems to have approached China by separating the “extra THAAD” and the “trilateral military alliance” at this foreign meeting and “deterring additional deployments”.
Regarding the ROK-China foreign ministers' meeting in Qingdao, China, a foreign ministry official told reporters, "At a closed meeting, Minister Park informed Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi that South Korea would attend the 'Chip 4' preliminary meeting." It was judged according to the national interest, and it was never intended to exclude or target a specific country."
In diplomacy, prior notice of participation in the preliminary meeting means continuing notice of future progress.
Regarding THAAD, a foreign ministry official said, "Neither China nor South Korea clearly agreed that this issue should not become an obstacle to the development of Korea-China relations. This is the key," and separated "security negotiations" from "foreign policy."
In a separate document after the foreign ministers' meeting ended on the 9th, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a separate document that "the THAAD issue puts great importance on security concerns and demanded proper handling of the issue," and separated the subsequent response in China.

At a regular briefing on the 10th, spokesperson Wang Won-bin of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the People's Republic of China said, "The Korean government has officially made a political oath of '3 no - 1 limit' externally." The two sides handled the THAAD issue amicably in stages," he said.

The first “restriction 1” that China announced on the same day means the South Korean government restricts the operation of THAAD deployed to USFK, and it is a confirmation of “domestic use.”

China's first statement of "one Korea" on this day means the South Korean government restricts the operation of THAAD deployed by US forces in Korea, and it is a confirmation of "domestic use".

The spokesperson pointed out that the U.S. deployment of THAAD in South Korea clearly harms China's strategic security interests and that China has expressed concerns to South Korea on several occasions. I want to," he said, linking to the interests of China.

An official from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs told reporters on the spot that Minister Park told Director Wang, "The so-called three dollars is not binding on us." Confirmed the transition of 'one-time government authority'.
When China tried to retaliate for trade with South Korea for deploying THAAD, the Moon Jae-in government ▲ did not deploy additional THAAD ▲ did not participate in the trilateral military alliance ▲ U.S.-led missile defense (MD) system Three policies were announced.
The joint action plan proposed by the ROK at the foreign affairs talks includes the “2+2” diplomatic and security dialogue with the diplomatic and defense authorities, the supply chain dialogue, the maritime cooperation dialogue, and carbon-neutral cooperation.
China's state-run Global Times said in an editorial right before the foreign affairs meeting, "If Korea is forced to join the US small group (chip 4), the international community expects Korea to play a role as a balancer."
