Democratization and freedom in Hong Kong and Taiwan will eventually require US assistance.
Korea is a small country that China ignores.

It is good for the ant to be ignored by the elephant. Regarding US assistance, sometimes the worst thing that can happen is to get what you want. I would not recommend becoming a nation the US has assisted given the circumstances recent beneficiaries of such attention enjoy.
I don't think the US should assist any harder on China's doorstep either.
You are right America's excessive interference can make China more angry. Nevertheless, South Korea, Japan and Taiwan will become US allies if the US checks China.
I believe all three are current US allies. I do agree that due to their geographical location, China strongly affects their policies.
