"Yes we could stop an NK invasion of the South but it would be very damaging. "

Never said any different. I do challenge the idea that they would unstoppably sweep the south.

"If they have high morale and determination, their numbers would enable them to have a strong effect despite their obsolete equipment and poor training."

They likely have both. But they also have the old-style Soviet central control. Which they lose in the first day or two, along with air cover and armor. And that means they are no longer an offensive force.

"but it would be a major disaster if Seoul was toast."

Again, never made a contrary claim. Seoul is in an untenable position. But the rest of the country would survive.
