Distressed / Private Credit market in Asia?

I'm a first year IB analyst starting at a local brand name firm in Asia. I'm interested in distressed/special situations investing and recently also started looking into private credit, but I've no idea who are the big players in Asia as I spent last 4 years studying in the US. Deeply appreciates any useful information on this topic.
