"the nukes were a strawman i used."

Fine. No problem, then.

"More likely would be land war and naval incidents"

Absolutely. And Seoul dies almost immediately. NK has enough artillery lined up within range to make sure that happens. And, without Seoul, there isn't much left to SK.

"Also nuke prolif big issue as i have stated in earlier posts."

The biggest risk to that is, and has been, Pakistan. They do possess some moderately sophisticated devices that are compact and deliverable. Fairly powerful too, since they are boosted with tritium. Not to the point you'd call them fusion devices, but certainly capable weapons.
