Japan has a navy that is better outfitted than Chinas, and a well equipped defense force. They don’t have an “offensive military” per se, but they’re not exactly helpless as it stands.
The big elephant in the room is the treaty they have with the US. Attacking Japan means direct conflict with America, which is… not something that is conducive to staying alive.

Since the Korean War was a war between North and South Korea, and this hypothetical situation was about a missile hitting Japan, I’m going to assume no.
