By physical appearance alone, how can you tell where in Asia an Asian person is from?

I am not racist. I am, however, white and am not familiar from where within Asia the different physical characteristics, more specifically facial features and skin color, originate or are most common.


sometimes you can tell by skin color, sometimes by stature, facial features. But honestly asian people have migrated throughout asia for centuries on end... it can be virtually impossible to make absolutes just by appearances.

chinese: dark, missing teeth, square jawlines, greasy, side parts, speak loudly

korean: pale, quiet, full red lips, almond eyes, very straight black hair

japanese: softer features, look more european than other asians, larger eyes, big full lips, pale to medium olive skin tone, usually have dyed hair.

and all the south asian countries all look the same to me.

you can't. there are some clues but it is like trying to guess where a white person is from based on their looks... one of the many countries in Europe? US? NZ?

Eyes, and their facial shape.

Also, their smell, normally b-o.. No offence.

and their accent.

You can't, not with any more than 50% accuracy.

chinese - oval face

japanese - square face

korean - flat face, narrowest eyes

u gotta be asian

seriously

i cant tell the difference

no offence

wtf

the higher the the corner of thier eye slants the further north they are from
