At the start of this video I was confused. The guy confidently saying that he could tell the difference was bullshit, and I knew it.
I am a lot more familiar with East Asian groups than most roundeyes, I live in an Asian neighbourhood in a metropolitan city, and work with a steady stream of new internationals. In some ways I am more familiar with the range of ethnic groups than many East Asians since I am exposed to people from all over, and not just one or two regions.
I will go on record as saying: Nobody can accurately tell the difference. It's the equivalent of identifying a German vs. a Brit. Sometimes you can guess well, but you never know for sure. There is so much interbreeding than any look can come from any area.
But that becomes clear as the video goes on and they demonstrate that they can not even agree on how to describe each other.
