Korea - [ Syriac Not Available ]

http://syriaca.org/place/4373
A peninsula kingdom zone east of China, historically connected to the continent through diplomacy, migration, and religious exchange. It absorbed and transformed many cultural forms transmitted through China, especially writing, Buddhism, and statecraft. In the context of Syriac Christianity, direct evidence is much weaker than in China, and most connections rest on later claims of ancestry or speculative transmission rather than securely attested medieval Syriac communities.3
