Russia and China like North Korea acting as a buffer against the US foothold in the region. If the North and South eventually reunite then it would most probably be allied to America (unless for some reason the North ends up being the dominant player in the reunification). In order to accommodate Chinese concerns US troops would probably have to leave Korea for the reunification to take place otherwise they'll continue to prop up the North.

Or at least not have any bases in the former Northern Korea. China would not be happy about US military bases right on its border.
