I'm sure there are a few things we can do. One possibility is parking a couple of nuclear subs off of North Korea, assuring them that should they be stupid enough to launch anything hostile, they will not live to see it hit the ground. Not only will they die, they won't even know if their attack worked at all.

Sometimes you just have to bloody the bully's nose to stop the B.S. And in the long term, you arm Japan nuclearly and South Korea with ABM's to bring balance to the region, unlike now with South Korea being covered only by our umbrella, and with China being the only big guy in the neighborhood.
