"Iisang Dagat" (Chinese: 海的那边; transl. from its Filipino title: "One Sea") is a song produced by the Chinese Embassy in the Philippines. Officially, the song was made as a tribute to Chinese and Filipino front-liners working amidst the COVID-19 pandemic in the Philippines as well as to commemorate Chinese–Philippine relations.

The song received a significant negative feedback from Filipinos for being perceived as a propaganda supporting the territorial claims of the People's Republic of China over the South China Sea. By November 2020, its music video posted in YouTube has received over 222,000 dislikes.[1]
