The aim of this whole thing is just attention seeking and also shows internally to N. Korean people that the government is "strong". The intention is to use nuclear weapons as a leverage to negotiate more favourable terms for N. Korea in terms of aid and $$s. North Korea doesn't gain anything from bombing cities, as soon as it does that, its fate is sealed, which is not the aim.

The aim is to continue to prop up the regime and let the Kims rule for eternity. So I think it's unlikely that this will end up drawing blood.
