This is, I think, an interesting point that you inadvertently raise. The current 240mm rounds are available only in HE variety but I overlooked that an incendiary one is available according to Jane's, I will research it further.
It would certainly be a worthwhile addition to compensate for other north korean deficiencies especially as the P'okpoong-ho, one of the very few remaining high tech assets, will have to be toned down considerably.
You will probably have to fight in a way not much different from what the north koreans would fight, mainly with infantry, special forces and tons of artillery; armor would be used in a limited and careful way, as without TI and with insufficient armor and firepower tanks would become tracked coffins really fast.
