South Koreans talk of developing nuclear weapons

[Razor]

300m blast radius = approx 280sqkm which is same as a 1kt nuke.

I don't know about 1 kT nuke, but 300m blast radius implies (by the way of pie r square) an area of ~282600 meter square which equals ~0.2826 km square, not 280 sqkm.

Seoul's Nuclear Weapon Is the U.S.

U.S. security guarantees that protect its allies from any attack by North Korea, nuclear or conventional, are made credible by the strength of our close political alliance and the presence of 28,000 U.S. troops in South Korea.

me and my maths!!!

I just hope someday there is a credible non-nuclear deterrence! Am just so fed up with "ek ka do" nukes all over!
