{'asean': [0, 0, 10, 6], 'indonesia': [1, 0, 1, 0], 'thailand': [0, 0, 2, 2], 'south korea': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'vietnam': [1, 1, 15, 20], 'countries': [1, 0, 2, 6]}

The correct answer is option 2: South Korea.

ASEAN stands for the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, which is a regional organization comprising ten member countries in Southeast Asia. The purpose of ASEAN is to promote economic, political, and social cooperation among its members.

Examining the options:

1. Indonesia is a member of ASEAN, so option 1 is not the correct answer.

2. South Korea is not a member of ASEAN, so option 2 is the correct answer.

3. Thailand is a member of ASEAN, so option 3 is not the correct answer.

4. Vietnam is a member of ASEAN, so option 4 is not the correct answer.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 2: South Korea. It is important to note that while South Korea is not a member of ASEAN, it does have a close relationship with ASEAN through various cooperation frameworks.
