They would have SOME historical backing to do so. Korea was a Qing dynasty (Manchu) vassal state. Still, quite flimsy considering that Korea has been culturally distinct from its neighbors (specialy Japan and China) for more than 1000 years.
Considering the cultural differences, Chinese annexation would not be a good idea.
