The number of soldiers isn’t the issue. The two issues are the civilian casualties would be unacceptable for SK and the NK civilians would halt progress as they’d need support from the SK army.
The other one is that China would almost certainly invade from the north because NK is a buffer state between it and SK, a US ally.
So about €3.50?

“Sorry mate, our bike got nicked last week, will a shopping trolley do?”
Oi! Get out of my headspace, I’m already trying to build confidence without overinflating my Ego and he doesn’t need your enabling.

Take a wild fucking guess.
They’re betting that they can sell before that happens and someone else is left holding the bag: pension funds and 401k.

In like 5 to 10 years there’ll be veterans getting horrific flashbacks when the delivery drone comes by to drop off their pizza and / or Amazon package.
I’ve got bad news for you bud about what was originally placed on those Russian rockets before Sputnik, Lyka, and Gagarin.
I’m glad for you but please remember that progress is not inevitable it is fought for to attain and needs to be fought for it to be kept.
Unfortunately you’ll have to get used to it and continue challenging them. The polycrisis is only going to get worse and the number of refugees from the impact of climate change and climate change related causes i.e. conflict from collapsing food / water access and / or failed states.
In the next 10 to 20 years life quality will peak and then will start collapsing over the next 50.
When that happens a significant cohort of the population will close ranks and want to “protect” those closest around them, the desire the ultra-rich have for isolation will continue to trickle down into the rich and remnants of the upper middle class as the wealth gap widens. In times of crisis this cohort pushes further and further right.
So keep working against these forces so we can get the rich to pay their fair share to fix these problems but be prepared to take up arms when the house of cards that is the relative stability we have now collapses.
Spoken like someone who hasn’t had a good roast dinner or cottage pie.

America: where young people are coddled until they’re 18 then it’s either sell your body, sell your soul, or both multiple times over just to survive.
