The biggest thing we fear is South Korea and Seoul in particular is vulnerable to the point they certainly would sustain substantial damage. If North Korea does anything first, it would be to do as much damage to SK as possible...that's their number one priority and enemy.
It would be massive no doubt with the focus like you said to knock out the immediate threat to Seoul, and Japan, but between our troops there and the naval and air force power we/Japan/SK could commit, an immediate blitz attack would almost certainly lead NK's surviving forces/leadership to sign a near immediate armistice. (Assuming China stays out of it).

Again, not saying this should happen, but what line would have to be crossed to make this option even viable.
