the DPRK is not in or allowed to join the UN

The DPRK is in the UN. Unless you mean the UNSC, but even if it were in the UNSC they wouldn't be able to challenge the blockade resolution.

Post was written at 4am. Genuinely not sure what I meant. No challenge can be made to resolution 1718 though because it includes the requirement for the DPRK to stop developing nuclear weapons and icbms, and that's a non-option.
