Well, yes, overland, and to North Korea, but not across the DMZ...

Iran to Pakistan to China, then into North Korea, back to China and either by ferry or air to South Korea. I know there used to be a China->South Korea ferry but not sure if it is still running.

The real trip is Tehran to Pyongyang overland... but ICN is the closest point to get a SkyTeam return to the US and onward to Europe.
