Why does China have so many bad earthquakes?

Maybe I need a geology forum, but can anyone tell me, why does China suffer so much from Earthquakes? Aren't they supposed to happen (like eruptions) near the edge of tectonic plates? Looking at the map below though, isn't Sichuan pretty far away from such a line? Tangshan too. Korea doesn't get them, for example.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tectonic_plates
