Threats[]
China - will try and take everyone around them including you, although you are usually not first on their kill list.- Japan - will try to invade you to form the Empire of Japan
- North Korea - weaker than you but will still try and invade you to form Korea or Goguryeo.
- Russia - Will sometimes expand into Manchuria and sometimes further if China collapses, although this is rare to happen.
- Taiwan - Will sometimes expand and invade you once they formed the Republic of China.
- Mongolia - Will try to invade you to form the Yuan Dynasty and the Mongol Empire
- Any releasable from China if it collapse.
Strategy[]
You need to ally China, because realistically you will not be able to win against them. If China is inexperienced they will most likely agree, if they don't ally you, you are screwed, so you should abandon ship, unless you have another superpower ally or regional superpower ally like Japan, 
Russia, The USA, or 
India. Japan can be fended off with a navy, artillery, and air force (optional). Japan usually has a strong navy so you will usually have to go to China for help. Use submarines to sink their troops but make sure your submarines avoid their destroyers. If possible make battleships or aircraft carriers to bombard them rapidly. Destroyers are efficient for destroying submarines and troops, but submarines can destroy troops faster. Frigates are a nice option as they are inexpensive. If China does not ally you they will most likely fight Japan and then take over you. If Japan and China, mainly China, do not disapprove, (unless you have a strong military and you can fight), you then you should take North Korea, 
Taiwan, 
Hong Kong and 
Macau if possible, but are most likely not due to China. With one of these factors, taking Japan will be easy: China's aid, Japan is an NPC, or you have a strong navy and army (if Japan is a player), you can invade Japan, otherwise back away. If Japan, North Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau are not available go for Southeast Asia and take as many countries as possible. Afterwards go for anything efficient for you.
Formables[]
South Korea can form 
Korea by annexing all of North Korea.
