Although I admit to not quite understanding the motivation for this suggestion, it seems first of all like a step backward to replace a K with a C from a worldwide point of view - c has many different pronunciations in different languages and positions; k is pretty constant (so "Korea" from English can be very easily taken in similar form in other languages whereas "Corea" would not). And besides, the version with a c in English calls to mind chorea, which is not a fortuitous resemblance.
