I found this article tody and found it raised some very valid points afew money shots:
"South Korea is fast approaching a critical decision as to whether to try to revive its troubled alliance with the United States or dissolve their joint security treaty, expel American forces from the peninsula and seek an alliance with China.
At a gathering of South Korean and American scholars and officials, all experienced in U.S.-South Korea matters, there was general agreement that the future of the alliance was open to question, but disagreement on whether it was on the verge of dissolving. Some said it was ready to wither and die, while others contended that the alliance had weathered equally serious storms."
