I’ve lived in Japan (4 different cities in 3 different regions)for the last 18 yrs. I have been to Korea twice, but not to China. I work in an American multi-national company, which has a human resources emphasis on encouraging diversity. Of course tho, most people are Japanese, since this is Japan. I feel that you cannot distinguish Chinese, Koreans, and Japanese from each other. Unless, you see a whole group of one nationality, like a sightseeing tour, and then I think I could distinguish a Japanese group from a Korean group. That’s my opinion, based on years of experience. Keep in mind tho, that Okinawan people, who are Japanese nationality, are somewhat different from ‘Yamato’ Japanese. Yamato is the name of the ethnic group of typical Japanese people. Back to Matthew’s comment, I don’t understand how culture could influence a person’s facial appearance. I personally am 100% Scandinavian, but I wonder if you could tell me from a Dutch person or a German. JJ P.S.: this software required me to specify a U.S. state, even tho it had allowed me to select ‘Japan’ as my country–absurd!
