Nope. Not deliberately, with forethought. They may get one by miscalculation. You get the sense the South is just itching for the North to lob some shells over the border and that they'll come back hard this time.
The North exists only because China wants it to exist. The Chinese could squeeze the North into a bloody change of government without setting foot across the border.
With China increasingly dependent on its position within a stable global community, they are signalling this isn't as much fun for them as it used to be.
The more you draw China into the world of nations, the less likely North Korea continues to exist in its present form. China simply can't afford this crap.
My two cents.
