Not sure about that. North Korea still remains an international pariah, nuke or not, and Russia isn't doing too well in Ukraine either. Of course Japan periodically complains of NK threat, but considering how much the Japanese right wing wants to arm the country again, NK is just being a very convenient excuse for them.
Ironically, one major consequence of North Korean nukes is that there's now zero chance America will unilaterally decide to "liberate" the country, Iraq style. Being South Korean, I'm okay with that.
