If North Korea “does something” — I’ll bet China will use the opportunity to take Taiwan.
They may even turn against NK if we agree not to defend the island. That would be a hell of a sacrifice.

China could intervene in N. Korea even when U.S. will stand firmly behind Taiwan. China wouldn’t want to lose N. Korea without gaining anything significant in return such as Taiwan.

It’d be better to defend Taiwan and let South Korea rot.
As it stands now, the South Korean youth has been so brainwashed by their education system that they think that North Korea is ‘protecting’ the South against rampant American debauchery and aggression.
Once the generation that remembers the Korean War dies off...
