One way to find out, calculate the cost of the destruction of Seoul, Pusan and many other major cities of South Korea, as well as nuclear attacks on Japan and the US mainland. Then add the casualties from biological and chemical weaponry detonations among South Korea, Japan and potentially the US (probably just Guam, maybe Hawaii), the add the military and civilian casualties from the war to liberate North Korea, roll a dice to judge whether China gets involved, then add the casualties from attacks from China and fighting a land war against China on the Korean peninsula if they do. Then add the collapse of the East Asian economy and the resulting major global recession.

Then compare the result of that calculation with the cost of putting up with continued North Korean provocations.

That's your answer.
