I don't think there is any way of saving Seoul if the North starts the fighting war again. I think that is what scares South Korea the most.

The threat to Seoul is highly overrated; even if all their guns could hit it from the other side of the DMZ (Only a few of them can), they probably wouldn't have enough ammunition to keep them firing long enough to flatten Seoul.
Not to mention targetting Seoul would deprive the North Koreans of the use of their artillery, which is one of their biggest assets, in actual combat, thus probably costing them the war.
