Just because they turn against the US on trade does not mean they are becoming friends. American policy is not what keeps them in part.
In short term they cooperate on tariffs, because America has gone crazy.
On the long term. South Korea and Japan will seek their to ensure their security against China without the US. South Korea is already discussing domestic nuclear weapons. Japan could go nuclear at any time when it wants.
