Answer:

B. Peninsula

Step-by-step explanation:

The Combined region of North and South Korea is on a landform considered as a peninsula. Peninsula comes from the Latin words panae and insula, meaning "almost" and "island" respectively. As its name suggests it is very similar to an island in the sense that it is connected to water bodies on most sides. However, it differs in the sense that while being connected to water bodies on most sides it is still connected to the mainland from where it stretches out from.
