(Keep in mine, this is just my opinion, so don't think I know every thing. It's only an opinion)

We can sanction NK all we want, but it's just not going to work. China's the big problem.

China (and a little bit of Russia maybe) are basically NK's lifeline. If the international community can persuade China to stop backing NK, we can force the so-called "hermit kingdom" to give in. Such sanctions would greatly affect the commonfolk, but they're already heavily affected by the regime's poor treatment and aide to the public, so their situations probably can't get any worse.

But it seems that even without much persuasion, the two nations are already starting to criticize and sanction the regime, thanks to the NUKES that are being built like crazy in the small nation.

But persuading China (and Russia) will be difficult (China likes the buffer zone North Korea acts as between SK, a huge ally of the U.S), and even if we can persuade them to stop shipments entirely, it may not be enough. But it will weaken the nation much easier, perhaps enough for us to topple the regime with a revolution.
