Don't forget Japan. Japan is to be the US's peacekeeper in the Far East, and they are rapidly expanding their military (contrary to popular belief it's really quite large). If North Korea were to engage war on anyone, Japan would also not allow it.
If we look at situations right now that could escalate, there are a number of islands in that general area that are being disputed. Russia, China, Japan, and North Korea all have claims which are currently being peacfully negotiated. If someone were to break that peace, they have the entire Allied forces to contend with, and that includes Japan. Russia knows what's best for them right now, so they would also side with the US. China and North Korea would end up fighting everyone themselves.
The biggest issue is how depleted the US troops are right now. Unfortunately for N. Korea, it only takes one plane to drop an atomic bomb.
