Point was that you having only king can't win against person with king+pawn ever. Even if such player was dead and thus played to lose.

You cannot win doesn't mean you loose .

You can always attempt to get stalemated which is a draw, or get a draw my threefold repetion , or in theory the 50 move draw rule as well( if say 47/48 of those already had happened etc).

I this case we were talking about situation where other player is literally dead. So I imagine draw would be granted, on part of other party not making any moves...
