Yes but US and Russia both wont fire nukes, not anymore. They know what it would do if they themselves fired off nukes to the environment and to the people. They would instead send in massive bombing campaigns to the country followed by troops.
In this day and age it wouldn't take a lot for NK to do some damage. Simply smuggle a couple small nukes into the US and detonate them near key targets of government. President, Vice President, and the Senate all in three blasts and if done right that no one seems it coming nor knows who really did it and the US won't be attacking anyone for awhile until they get their government back in order.
Or:
One thing about NATO is they also have the habit of dragging their asses. If the NK say somehow invaded SK and took them over , if done right and fast enough, NATO I don't think would even blink an eye. That would then give NK all the modern arms and training that SK employs.
Wait a couple years and then with China's help attack the Japan. Now this would make the world sit up and take notice since Japan is one of the major players. But once again do it fast enough and force Japan's surrender and they might sort of get away with it. I'd do this by invading equipment into Japan using commercial airliners and cargo ships. Force the Japanese army and airforce into looking internally, then hit them with strategic airstrikes by aircraft and long range missiles.
So if NK got this done fast enough then they could waste time arguing with NATO about releasing Japan, meanwhile building up arms.
Or better yet Korea (united at this time) could slowly start taking over small asian countries that no one really cares about and use the men from these countries to bolster it's military might and then do the whole Japan thing.
I mean... I've got some other points I wont get into but this is generally the plan Im going with anyways in the next 5 years.
