Dr. Suh Bo-hyuk -- research fellow (of the Peace Research Division) at the Seoul affiliated think tank Korea Institute for National Unification (KINU) -- pointed out that the biggest security threat to N. Korea is the "continuously developing solidarity among the U.S., Japan and S. Korea."
He thing that it's aimed to weaken the U.S.-Japan-S. Korea cooperative framework by wavering Japan-S. Korea relations by showing feelings of "sympathy" to Japan regarding the earthquake disaster, while contiously conduct firing drills to S. Korea.
