So if they shot a nuke at SK/Japan we can intercept it immediately?
Without THAAD, no. At least that's my understanding of the necessity of having it in place in SK.

I can't speak on Japan because I'm not sure.

HOWEVER, THAAD is not to protect SK... it's to protect the US bases. IF they can do so without compromising the safety of US bases, then they will, I'd hope.

I think diplomacy is long gone. China seems to be on board with a strike on the nuclear facilities. US/SK are probably aiming for a complete regime change. I think we'll see a lot more info come out about the Trump/Xi meeting in the coming weeks (if NK escalates and these news releases are accurate). China just came out and basically said that their influence on NK has been severely overblown by the rest of the world and they don't really 'control' them like people think. China has also reportedly deployed 150k troops near the NK border so they may be anticipating a major event. Its really tough to say how accurate any of this is simply because this is all happening around the annual war games, so all of this could just be posturing.

If NK decides one day to load a nuclear warhead onto a missile and fire it at either the US or one of its allies, it is not the US you need to worry about it. You should worry about the fate of the NK ppl. The retaliation will be massive. And it will be swift.

My wife's best friend is from SK. Bunch of family out there so she's worried af but her friend is like, it's all good. So idk
All regular South Korean people are like that. And no, it's not because of the constant empty threatening... they simply don't believe in planning for worst case scenarios in any form or fashion. They're motto is "It will be ok" when it comes to big problems/events that may occur that effects Korea or just them individually.
