How does killing south korean civilians and destroying a bunch of buildings damage the US and South Korean militaries?

This isn't an RTS, Mainiac. Flatenning a nation's major city actually does do incredible damage to it. You might as well ask what damage sinking Manhatten will do to the US Army.

Short term?  Almost nothing.

If a war was fought between the US and NK, it would be done entirely with weapons built before the war.  There just wouldn't be time to make more weapons before the war was already over.  Killing a bunch of civilians in Seoul would just increase the speed with which the South and the US would send troops northward.

But so long as there is that threat to Seoul, nobody can step on North Korea's toes.

I was responding at the time to the statement that bombing Seoul would make an invasion of the north impossible.

No, the threat of bombing Seoul makes an invasion of the north impossible.

It's like challenging a leper to a wrestling match. You're going to win, short term.

Fun fact: 95% of all human beings are naturally immune to leprosy.

I was responding at the time to the assertion that an artillery bombardment of Seoul would inhibit an invasion.  As in a bombardment that has already happened.

A fine strawman you've got there.

I think that if the situation changes to the point that a war between Best Korea and Notbest Korea becomes a certainty the usefulness of the 583rd Best Korea Artillery Division may be limited. For example, by NATO exploding the DMZ as soon as the war starts.

India isn't known for being a really aggressive nation.

Are you kidding me?  They've nuked me more times than all the other civilizations combined.

[PTTG??]

I think a part of the reason that North Korea still exists is that it is economically pointless.
