If NK fired a rocket it would go up like 500 ft then come back down and blow up

Its nato vs "the other block"
Several nuclear countries would nuke us for using a nuke on n Korea ir anywhere in the world, thus setting off everyone to use em. Thats also why n Korea having them is so bad, because they alone could trigger the use by everyone in an instant.
That is how it works.

No they can't. Their nuclear arsenal won't trigger the US to nuke them, or China to nuke us or Russia or whatever you're thinking. If they nuke anyone, they're gone, and will be over-run by conventional warfare by all nations.

Judging by the amount of countries who possess and maintain nuclear deterrents, I wouldn't be so sure about that last part.

if one country doesn't have nukes and the other does, it's not mutually assured destruction, that's just destruction

if north korea fired a rocket at south korea even south korea wouldn't suffer from a nuclear fallout

North Korea has thousands of long range rockets sitting at their boarder and ready to fire at South Korea's Capitol. They have really strong ground forces.

They have really strong ground forces.

only because of their huge numbers. their tanks, planes and guns are mostly really old tech from the 50s, 60s, and 70s that they acquired as hand-me-downs from soviet russia and china; that puts them at a big disadvantage in a one-on-one firefight. their tanks and planes are no match for south korea's or the US (remember there is a 30,000+ man force of US soldiers kept in south korea as a deterrent to the north). and their navy is literally just a bunch of small motorboats.

so yeah when it comes to numbers they can overwhelm. but thats their only advantage, and its only for land as well. put their entire "navy" up against just 1 carrier strike group and they're all finished.

they apparently have a crapton of oil reserves tho, if chinese estimates are reliable. that and their large military headcount are the only advantages they'd have in a non-nuclear war. much of their mining and general industrial infrastructure is old and falling apart, and let's not even get started on the massive famines in north korea.
