Denuclearization would be a tangible takeaway for America (and Japan), but it's actually a fairly small component in the grand scheme of the unification puzzle.

Real change. Take notes
why do you say that ?
Nukes (and more to the point, ICBMs) raise the stakes and potentially change the incentives for international partners, but the question of re-unification (and the prospect of conflict on the peninsula, nuclear or otherwise) exists independent of that, for the people who live there.
What does NK have to offer SK other than their nukes?
All that NK discretionary income. New markets are always nice but SK's economy is not hurting.Unleashed potential to boost trade

What a disgrace the left has become.

So this is just going to be ignored right?
1 of the 2 defining 'accomplishments' of the Obama presidency has turned out to be a complete disaster. And the other is this terrible Iran deal.

'WASHINGTON — The leading Republican senator [Bob Corker] on foreign policy appeared unimpressed with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech Monday detailing Iran’s history of covertly building a nuclear program, calling the shared revelations “nothing new” and “not groundbreaking.”
...
"I will say it is written almost with an assumption that Iran would try to cheat,” Mattis told the Senate Armed Services Committee last week. “So the verification, what is in there, is actually pretty robust as far as our intrusive ability to get in.”'
So it's new information about something we already knew...the ramifications of which are baked into the deal.
Smells like 2003.
