And if the regional players like SK, Taiwan, and Japan don't think the US has their backs, especially as a counterweight to the peace loving world huggers of mainland China, then maybe they'll decide that they need to pursue a nuclear weapons program for their survival.
SK today is a much more professional military than the last time they went head to head with the Norks. SK will probably roll the Norks all the way back (assuming China doesn't jump in) to the China / Russian borders. But at human costs that could easily dwarf the last 10 years of war.
