Oh joy. IF in fact they build one. We should track it to extremely deep water and use one of our attack subs to torpedo it.... and never say a word.
Just let it be lost at sea.

OK, a Nork nuclear powered sub . . .
It patrols around submerged, and then the commander says —
GO
So they ‘ignite’ their nuke to propell them, like a rocket.
Wheeee

They are in North Korea.
Options:
1. Get sent to the front line in Ukraine/Russia
2. Get atomized by a large explosive right on you. Family gets relocated to labor camps.
If you are lucky, you get to be the cook. Find out how to poison the todies, and maybe you can cut communications, and pilot the sub to some place reasonable and turn it in.

One of the complexities and weight addition to US subs is the primary reactor shielding. It protected the crew from radiation… we got monitored closely for our radiation exposure and actually got less than ambient radiation we we would have gotten in everyday life. We were told that Russian subs save money and weight by going cheap on the shielding, and the crew consequently git significant radiation exposure; to the point Russian crew members were not allowed to have children. I assume Korean subs will be similar.

assuming these fools are really building one, they’ll be worse, much worse, in terms of blasting crew members with deadly radiation ...
