The neighbours across the sea as the Song of the Southern dynasties saw them. Here are the tribute of Go Ryeon, King Jangsu of Goguryeo, and the affair of Feng Hong; the notice of Baekje taking Liaoxi; the memorials of the five kings of Wa — Chan, Jin, Je, Heung and Mu; and the memorials that the many kingdoms of the Southern Sea sent up out of their faith in the Buddha, down to Huilin's Treatise on Equal Goodness — the record of the sea roads of the fifth century.

16 entries and 67 paragraphs fully translated. The eighth book on the Eastern Yi shelf. The memorial of King Bu of Wa ("eastward he subdued fifty-five countries of the hairy people…") is in this book.
