"Doahae" (도아해) is a recently coined term by a member South Korean boy group SEVENTEEN. Dokyeom (도겸) created this term as a contender to his bandmate's term, Horanghae. It is a combination of the first syllable of Dokyeom's name, "도"/"Do", and "좋아해"/"Joahae", which means "I like you" in Korean. Although it's literal meaning is "I Do you", it is usually used in the place of saying that one likes something. It has been used by Dokyeom on his various Weverse posts and moments.

This is something closer to "weeb slang."

Donghae is a name for the "East Sea" or "Sea of Japan." It's a body of water that essentially connects the two countries (that historically don't get along).

Hence: Donghae (when used in weeb slang) means "After a slow burn (a long waiting period) your OTP finally get together." It's meant to be used as more of a sound effect or to punctuate.
Weeb 1: IT TOOK ED 64 EPISODES TO GET WITH WINRY! FUCK! WE'RE FINALLY HERE!
Weeb 2: DONGHAE!!!
