The best way to track them would be to park a geo-stationary satellite over NK and follow them out of the factory 24-7.

Geo-stationary satellites can be parked only over points on the equator.

Geosynchronous satellites can be “parked” on the Korean longitude, but their ground track oscillates north and south over the course of each orbit.

I say we nuke 'em from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.
