The more I look at it, the more I am convinced it is inevitable.
The N.Koreans are not going to democratize ever. It is an existential thing for them. They democratize, their people will throw a rope around their dicatators neck and hang them for crimes against humanity. Their dictators will go down only with a big bang and throw up all the bombs they up. South Korea and USA should have finished the job 50 years ago but they dragged it on. Now NKorea now has atomic bombs. They can all have a big nuclear party if war breaks out, which it will one day. Only a matter of time.
N.korea is now selling its nukes to Burma (http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/br...-weapons-program/story-e6frf7jx-1225875649482)
The ASEAN region will have a rogue state with nuclear bombs soon. Singaporeans might have to live within Burma's nuclear range.
China and Taiwan are different. Taiwan can play out time and slowly wait for China to develop and democratize. Peaceful reunification is an option in 2-3 generations time. President Ma knows that and he is shelving aside the independence issue.
North and South Korea will never have peaceful unification. The more they drag, the more powerful N.Korea becomes and the bigger a threat they are.
Maybe it is time S.Korea bites the bullet and take out North Korea's dictatorship once and for all, before they get more long range nukes and nuclear armed submarines.
A united Korea + Japan + Taiwan + USA backing will make for a free and prosperous East Asia. China won't dare to touch Taiwan if Korea, Japan and USA are all behind Taiwan, aligned by their just beliefs in democracy, human rights and freedom.
