Should South Korea be allowed to have nuclear weapons?

Background and Context of Debate:

Although there were minor attempts for South Korea to have nuclear weapons to respond against a nuclear-armed North Korea, none of them were noticeable and met with fierce resistance about threats of war in North Korea. It seems that both the angry North Korea and the reluctant United States are unagreeable about a nuclear-armed South Korea.
