Immediately after an explosion that caused the 1,200-ton corvette Cheonan to sink in waters near the de-facto maritime border with North Korea on March 26, the Captain sent out a message to the Second Navy Fleet Command, saying, "We are being attacked by the enemy."
A military source on Thursday said Captain Choi Won-il sent the message using his mobile phone, according to analysis of communications records.

I thought our government said it didn’t seem that N.K. was involved.

Assuming China doesn’t do anything, and that’s the big “if”, I have a feeling that South Korea would completely roll over the North in a fight.

It isn’t in the ROK interest to have anything flare up so expect them to downplay any DPRK involvement.

Wait for conclusive proof evidence that another country was complicit before starting a war which can escalate quickly to a nuclear war.
