Korea is a mess quite frankly. A mess that is equivalent to Margaret Thatcher's disasters. Its extremely unlikely we'll see a happy resolution to this problem within our lifetimes.
The worse thing you can do is isolate the north half of Korea further, it adds fuel to the fire that is their state paranoia and propaganda. The regime would gradually erode and collapse when its people realise the west aren't as "evil" as the government would have them believe.
Unfortunately, we are dealing with some rather speculator cretins in office lately, whose favorite current word is "sanction". Sanction this and sanction that. There's no end to the current 'regime' of stupidity that is burning bridges and bricking up doors that these politicians crave so.
North Korea exists because it is convenient to the US army.
To quote Ben Croshaw: "When society gets big, rich, and stupid enough, it actually starts to enjoy a good war."
