Before the dustup starts, here are the pre-game statistics.

Not mentioned here are artillery tubes. I have been led to believe that the Norks have a large number of them, dug in to hardened positions, and many of them aimed at Seoul.
Be a shame if some of those 63 subs started not coming back from missions though.

That's as reported by many, including General Walter Sharp, who stated, "It has the world's largest artillery force that is positioned as far south as possible and that can rain on Seoul today." I wonder what sort of neutralizing attack is possible against such. Bunker busters come to mind.
Oh, and re. force comparisons, I think things skew significantly towards the ROK when you add in U.S. forces. Of course, nobody in charge would actually use those forces to best effect in the event of a conflict. (I'm not advocating such, just mentioning the possibility.) But then I doubt the current crop of leaders in NorK would be dissuaded by the assurance that all of NorK from the DMZ to Pyongyang would be turned into a wasteland.
Side-looking radars can peel away foliage, and make the ground look like a paved parking lot. A well hidden emplacement than looks like the entrance to Cheyenne Mountain, and a little X is placed on a map. Precision weaponry can eliminate all known targets in fairly short order, but the problem is like knowing precisely where every ant in a large anthill is and then having to allocate one hammer for each ant.
It's do-able, I suppose, and as I'm not a militaria wonk, there may well be stuff available to make the job less daunting.
