I wonder how South Korea would feel about becoming the island country of Korea?

While it will not be pleasant, I heartily recommend that SKor and Japan make a public agreement to “study” the “mutual” development of nuclear weapons, which will come into effect *only* if Nork tests a nuclear weapon “or major blast component”.

This would be done to put a scare into China, to sit on its Nork ally. And if that wasn’t enough, include an option in the agreement to include Taiwan and the Philippines.

Take cover and duck...If their bomb experiments are as un-successful as their missle launches.
