Think reunification of Germany. Yes, there will be pain in the short run, but better for the world in the long run.
And the last thing China wants is SK to expand to the entire peninsula. So if they want to keep their little buffer zone intact, they’d better replace Fatboi with someone who they can control, and who is sane.

Nor does China want millions flooding into NW China, hence the deployment of the troops to that area.

I agree totally.
For all the talk of reunification, the South would be overwhelmed in so many ways - even if it were just a matter of feeding and housing refugees.
