    (1) To prevent continuous extortion by Trump, S Korea can consider :-
    a. Beef up its military forces and assets.

    b. Consider forming military alliance with China and allow China troop to station in S Korea to replace US force.

    c. Tell Trump to get its troop out.

    (1) S Korea likely hostility is with N Korea.

    (2) With military alliance with China, unlikely that N Korea and S Korea will fight.

    (3) S Korea can wrangle away the continuous extortion by Trump - which is an endless vicious cycle. Trump will never get satisified - if don't believe, Trump will again exort further amount from S Korea -- no end to it --- worst than a "loanshark".

now
(1) Trump will have more to fear - because N Korea nuclear missile will be targeting Trump.

(2) S Korea has no obligation to place its Thaad in S Korea soil to intercept N Korea nuclear missile flying on its way to hit Trump.

(3) Trump has more to fear N Korea nuclear missile than S Korea - because Trump is the one that sanction N Korea.

(4) So S Korea should stand firm on its ground - and not let Trump fleece the hell out of S Korea.

    Show hand. No more empty talk. US wants to squeeze money from South Korea.
    What US does not appreciate is that it is a great privilege to station US troops and weapons in other people's country.
    South Korea says to US:
    "If you wish to pull out all your troops, please let us know the deadline. And we mean 100%. Thank you for your past service in South Korea. Good Bye and do not come back."

    It's best for South Korea to increase the size of its armed forces and to develop its arms industry rather than pay the US such huge sum of money. At least, the money is spent internally in South Korea generating jobs and employment and maybe make some money selling arms.

    The problem with S Korea is that they do not have even a decent military force. Most conscripts look more like sissy boys or K-pop group. S Korea continue to be slack in their defense and depend on US for every instructions and planning.
