ASEAN as a regional organization in Southeast Asia has cooperative relations with state actors and other international organizational actors within the ASEAN+1 framework, one of which is with South Korea. ASEAN relations with South Korea experienced ups and downs due to following the dynamics that occurred on the Korean Peninsula. After the election of Moon Jae In as President of South Korea, the South Korean government emphasized its seriousness to deepen its relations with countries in Southeast Asia and India. This article explains why South Korea has again strengthened its relationship with ASEAN through the New Southern Policy. This study uses the concept of national interest based on English School thinking with a qualitative approach and literature review methods that collect data in the form of books, journals, official government websites, and scientific reports/papers. The results of this study indicate that South Korea has deepened its relationship with ASEAN to realize its national interests in the form of increasing economic cooperation which was affected by the trade war between the United States and China. In addition, South Korea's other national interest is in the form of efforts to achieve peace on the Korean Peninsula through ASEAN member countries that also have bilateral relations with North Korea.

To respond to this move, South Korea selected 10 ASEAN member states and India as economic partners for market diversification [4]. Additionally, President Yoon emphasized the role of cyber security by selecting cyber security as a national task in 2022.…”

“…The ASEAN and its wide-ranging Asia-Pacific community, recognized as a neutral organization, plays an important role in international cybersecurity cooperation in the context of United States-China strategic competition [3]. In other words, ASEAN and India are developing cooperative relationships with partner countries to meet internal demands for economic growth, security enhancement, and social development, while simultaneously responding to external factors such as confrontation and competition between the camps triggered by the US and China [4]. ASEAN member states are also becoming significant contributors to the global information and communication technology (ICT) supply chain and the rapidly growing export of ICT services [5].…”

“…Here, the performance of the regional strategies of respective powers can be evaluated through the intertwined links of cooperation and assistance. Northeast Asia's Indo-Pacific strategy is a diplomatic strategy that uses networks to maximize the national interests of ASEAN members [4].

The strategic rivalry between the United States and China is out in full swing in Southeast Asia. As the result, ASEAN is emerging both as a key player as well as a playground for pivotal global and regional actors. South Korea, Japan, and China known as ASEAN Plus Three, have strong economic, political, and technological ties with the region, and have leveraged their cyber capabilities to compete for influence in the region. This study evaluates the relative performances of the Plus Three’ cyber outreach efforts to the region by visualizing the complex web of actors and cyber cooperation and assistance activities with network analysis tools and open-source databases. We quantitatively analyze national cyber security cooperation of ASEAN including South Korea, Japan, and China through capacity building indicators and social network methodology. This study (1) analyzes cybersecurity cooperation in ASEAN Plus Three, (2) explores factors that influence cooperation, and (3) lays out a quantitative basis for establishing national information policy and cybersecurity strategy. We find that the Plus Three, despite the outward similarity in their respective regional strategies, are a study of contrasts, with one of them emerging as an influential yet silent power in the regional cyber diplomacy domain.
