Idk if North Vietnam had the same diplomatic relations. Was South Vietnam considered a seceded sovereign state at the Paris Peace accords?

There is a One Korea policy between the DPRK and ROK. Both consider the other illegitimate. As for how they both join the UN, they were essentially given observer status until the 90s when the ROK campaigned to be recognized as a UN state. Since neither China nor the Soviet Union was willing to veto the ROK from joining the UN, the DPRK decided to join the UN as well. This, however, greatly hurts the One Korea policy since the world now recognizes two Koreas.
