- CAN YOU TELL ASIANS APART ?!?! - YORK UNIVERSITY
I put people at York University to the ultimate test of if they are able to tell Asians apart! This was not meant to be racist at all, but just a fun video to make because I always play this guessing game by myself when I see other Asian people!!!
Thank you for everyone that was interviewed and thank you to my
beautiful models!!
Huge shoutout goes to Joel Kim for filming this!! He has worked with a lot of big time CZcams people such as David Choi, Arden Cho, and much much more!!

I'm asian and I can't tell asians apart unless they start speaking their language
Allen theJungleMan yea right
Allen theJungleMan yep
Me to
Allen theJungleMan true
Allen theJungleMan that's what i am thinking 🤔👌🏼
Idk why but like all Filipinos can tell if someone is Filipino or not
It's Nyabby yeah when we went to HongKong China my Mom asked someone a question in Tagalog with out even asking if she is Filipino
I am A Filipina and yes I agree!!! 💜
It's Nyabby Chinese can tell other Chinese apart too. They can tell which area are they from just by listening to them. The area that I meant is like are they from Sichuan, Chengdu, Fujian, Dongbei, and etc.
This reminds me of Jo Koy's story about his mom😂
That's a fact.
How to tell if someone is filipino.
Make a loud "psst" and If they turn around, their filipino.
Lmao
bruh, everywhere in the world and u 'psst' at them, they will look out of curiosity😂
I did it in front of my whole family and all looked at me
"hoy" will be more accurate
HOY dapat hahah lilingon yan
I was like, “They all look Korean, but they can’t all be Korean.”
Then they were all Korean.
Edit - Lowkey forgot this comment existed-
Same
I know
I think people forget that there are MIXED asians too a lot , especially in southeast asia. Many southeast asians are mixed with chinese. My fam members are from thailand but several of them are mixed with chinese ,lao and vietnamese. mainly with chinese tho...which is the case for most thais .if mixed. Fact is...u cant always consider everyone as some FULL ethnicity, like 100% korean etc. My friends daughter is half Thai/korean ...soooo...they could be anything
mxd-asian1990 exactly... and if you look into grandparents and grand-grandparents it could be mixed... you're never 100% anything
I know I'm not the only one
“Filipinos are thicker,” that killed me 😂😂😂
Hahahaha!👏👏
Flat here
FILIPINO??? SOOOOOORRIIIIII lolzzz -JOKOY
true
no he said hostage taker
It's hard to distinguish Filipinos sometimes because of the multiple colonizations our country has went through, our people are basically mixed with so many races.
huhuhulia lol. not really
@@JoeJoe-hn2nh bitch i have two cousins that look like they're chinese but they have filipino parents. my grandparents are half spanish. my OTHER grandparents have western blood. my classmates range from being darker than night to blindingly white. wtf u on.
I literally have a cousin who lowkey looks korean while her sister looks more pilipino like wtf
@@christiangaleon2817 EXACTLY!!! filipinos reproduce with EVERYONE jfc
Im Filipino and this so true HAHAHA
Its hard to distinguish Malaysian, Indonesian, and Filipino apart unless when they spew words.
come on, lets be honest. 😂😂
even when they do its still hard to tell. im indonesian so when i hear tagalog it feels like i should understand it but i dont

“I thought he was Chinese, but he’s actually Filipino.”
And a cute one at that. That’s true though, my cousin gets mistakened as Japanese every now and then.
They usually have dark skin
@@kylewang2876 yup the mahority here is dark/brown skinned, although 30 to 40% of the people here is like light pale and dark pale
@@kylewang2876 Probably because they are Located near the Equator which is Hot, Hot. Today's Generation, Filipinos are mostly Pale/Yellowish.
You're Filipino but u didn't know that we are Chinese/Austronesian?😟
@@jiafei_products7085 You forgot Nigritos or People who are already Native to the Islands.
pure filipino has different features some have big eyes some have small some have white skin some are tan some are black some have sharp nose some have flat nose i think almost everything except for hair and eye color. i think it's because in early days of the Philippines it was colonize by different countries
I think pure Filipinos are rarely found nowadays, especially in the capital city or abroad. I'm studying in the North so I see some from time to time but I don't know they are pure.
You and I yup this is true
I don't see a lot of filipino with sharp nose, most have flat nose. Are you talking about those who are mixed?
You and I I am Filipino (but 1/8 Spanish and 1/8 Portuguese and I also have Chinese blood). I'm fair (not pale, but I'm very pinkish), I have a pretty pointy nose, my hair is lighter brown than typical Filipino brown and sometimes it looks gold or red, but if you compare it to Caucasian brown than it's darker, and my eyes are gray brown so under certain lights, it looks brown and other times it looks dark gray. I'm not really mestiza, but I get mistaken for being a foreigner because I have an accent that sounds American and European at the same time! 😂
totally agree
Damn even the Koreans cant recognize Koreans hahaha this was great
Ranem Shain
Well thats ridiculous and quite sad :/
Hahha lmao😂
@Ranem Shain Filipino teachers are worse because of the economic state of the Philippines
Koreans look for status too lol
Ranem Shain, most koreans are racists anyway
@tiki taka You prolly don't know about Filipinos and the Philippines, am I right?
I'm Filipino and some people thought I was Japanese, Korean or Chinese.
I don’t think any pinoy has
@@cool_kai3298 some filipinos are mixed with chinese, same with thais vietnamese etc, southeast asia countries has many chinese people living there especially in thailand are the most , so many southeast asians are actually mixed with chinese.
Same but im chinoy(filipino chinese)
You most probably have Chinese blood in you.
Di ka nagiisa dyaan tol
As a Filipino, it's easy for me to know if you have Japanese, Chinese, Indian, Korean ancestry, or even Mongolian. What I can't tell is if one person is Malaysian, Filipino or Indonesian just based on their looks
Yeah southeastern countries look similar. As a Filipino, u can identify another Filipino by their nose and their accent when they speak of they are Tagalog. Bisaya is kinda harder to identify since they speak better English.
Indians aren't Asian
Around northern part of Philippines, some I cant even tell apart if theyre korean, japanese, or chinese or not
No tea no shade. Studying in the Philippines for a while as a Korean made me realize that Filipinos are mostly mixed. There are legit Korean looking Filipinos, legit Chinese looking Filipinos etc. it was like I was in all of Asia in one place. A one stop place to see a lot of Asian ethnicities. Not to mention the beautiful beaches and the kindest people I've EVER met. That's coming from a girl who's also been to china, Thailand, Japan, the US and of course Korea. I even had met a Filipino boyfriend that totally looked like a Korean (no double eyelids and spoke American English,pale skin and fashionable) just sharing though.
thats because Filipinos are mixed. According to National Geographic, the average Filipino is: 53% Southeast Asian/Oceanian, 36% East Asian (Chinese mixture mostly), 5% Southern European (from Spain), 3% South Asian (ancient Indian mixture), and 2% Native American (from Latin America)
genographic.nationalgeographic.com/reference-populations-next-gen/
Angelica you are on point. im a filipino... but my students usually misidentify me as thai, korean, japanese or taiwanese.
I have a friend whom I thought was mixed Korean(Or Chinese), but she's actually Pure Filipino. I'm Filipino too. She has pale skin and monolids ,so I thought she was mixed. Haha ,
haha someone said it haha. I'm Filipino but some mistakens me for Malaysian or indonesian or sometimes korean... Its really surprising haha
Melting pot of Asia
East Asia - More like Chinese Feature (Have Chinese Eye, light skin, thin)
SouthEast Asia - More like Malay Feature (Have sometimes that big eyes, Natural Tan skin, Black Hair, I can agree to the thick one)
South Asia - More like indian Feature (Black Hair, Dark Skin, Have big and long nose)
West Asia - More like Arab Feature (Beard for males, long and big nose, both dark and light skin)
North Asia - More like Russian -European feature (Tall, white, have different natural hair color like blonde, also have big and long nose)
We can see the difference of Asian people based on their region.
PS:
Filipinos are the hardest one to find out they were a mix of a lot of races
(Don't call me racist)
Didn't you see the interviewed filipino, his friend thought he was Chinese.
@@jerricarte2855 well filipinos are hard to find, because they are a lot of mix like the Chinese, Malay, Indian, some are American and very little Spanish, that is why it is hard to find out if he or she is a filipino
Krince Quiambao
It’s hard to notice but Japanese/Korean people actually have larger eyes as compared to Chinese
For south asians, like Indians
They have different skin tones
Some Indians even look like East Asians and about 40% have white skin tone. I don’t know about the nose part
As for arabs, not everyone has a beard dude 🙄
And most people don’t even have long noses
Germans have long noses tho
You forget Central Asia.
People there are diverse in looks. They can range from a Middle Eastern/European to Eurasian to full East Asian (Mongolian and Siberian) appearance.
By the way, not all West Asians are Arab. There are Kurds, Anatolian Turks, Assyrians, Jews, Armenians, Persians, etc.
@@aditya7538 lol what a joke only 10 %of the south Asian are white in color. Most of them have olived or brown skin tone. Lighter one will in the shade of olive brown color
How to tell them apart? Simple, just learn a couple of swear words from their country and say it aloud. Those who react are from that country who understood that word 😂

There's a huge difference wtf
Maybe because you have smaller eyes or smthn
Kabayan!
Just because they only know Asia = Japan,China,korea
Maybe because you use Gluta too much. 😂
Just ask their name. If the person looks Chinese with a Spanish surname, most likely he is Filipino. If the person looks Spanish mestizo with Chinese surname, most likely he is Filipino.
😂😂😂
haisai They actually have.. 2 of my friends have chinese surnames and Filipino kami lolz HAHA
Ahahaha
haisai yes there are many, surnames like Ong, Tan, Chong, Sy, Lui, Kang, Tui, Cheng, Hou, Soo, Go and a lot mooore...
i am a filipino and i have a Chinese surname
For non Asian it's hard to figured it out, but for Asians I can tell whether or not you are A Malay, Filipino, Thai, Korean, Japanese, Chinese
This is how.
Malay has darker skin tone and has a thik look same as with Filipinos and has double eyelids.
Thai do also have double eyelids but they're more a bit lighter and has almost the same round eyes as the Malay.
Korean has that distinct No eyelids look and are very skinny, tall, light skinned, with a fluffy full small faces.
Japanese always that distorted teeth that looks nice on them and they have that more kinky eyes stretching up.
Chinese do also have thick skin but they have the most beautiful straight hair with a Filipino like eyes but is more smaller eyes.
To be honest my mom thinks all Korean look the same
Thai is in between Chinese and Malay. Their facial features look different from Malay Filipinos Cambodian.
Malay and Indonesians look defferent too, Malay facial features more close type like south thais and bruneis while Indonesian has very complex types .Indonesian is in between Thais ,Malays,Chinese ,Filipinos while in East Indonesian is in between Indonesian, Filipinos, Malays and Melanesian
To tell u frankly. Most Filipinos are mix. Maybe the purer onse are those tribes. Probably the pure blood Filipinos are 30-46 percent of the population.
i’m a filipino who’s paler than most east asians and very thin/ have a very angular face
You can't tell which one is a filipino dude trust me because most of us are mixed, the only basis is their accent in speaking english.
Some of the Southeast asians are harder for me to distinguish, especially Filipinos. I have a friend that I met at school, when we first met he asked me if I can guess where he came from. I guessed Colombia or Venezuela, he was actually pure filipino. He also introduced me his other friend and asked if I can guess where he's came from. I answered Korean but he's also pure filipino. Wtf.

PH is a diverse country. So there are those that look mixed. There are those that have that westerner-asian mix. There are those with brown/tan skin. There are those that look Chinese/Korean with mix of Filipino.
here we can see the comparison of the faces of Indonesian and filipinas and of course Indonesians looks a like more East Asian ferature compared with Filipinas
Indonesian : czcams.com/video/ooKxJdzAu-c/video.html

@@user-cz4rn1xc2w heh u can see Indonesian have many light skin and east asian look compared with filipino ?? that's the reality indonesians are more prettier than filipina......... you don't accept the fact because in general Indonesians in western part look like it's mixed chinese, malay, thai even westren etc.
@@leony0903 but why i see a lot of indonesian who have a arabic name, facial structures and muslim? aren't indonesia have a strong Arabic influence?
@@user-cz4rn1xc2w You are a troll here .. defferent between Filipinas and Indonesians which is the most prettier of course Indonesians ..we are Indonesians a mixture of east asia and southeast asian look while the filipinas are mostly local faces 100% "Austronesian" it is brown skin people living in the philippines -
Actually, in my opinion Asian people are the easiest to tell apart, all having distinct features. Im White and I couldn't tell if you if someone was British, Australian or American, Italian , French and so on ......
Oh you would think.
All whites are same just different countries
Vicky Singson yeah it seems like that haha, I only pride myself because I'm a quarter Pacific Islander 😂, at least a little mixed
Yeah that's true 😂😂😂
True aff
I'm asian but i couldn't tell those 4 students apart
I am here with you .I could not tell shit.
Lol same
J K Lee lol same i’m vietnamese and i thought the first dude and the third girl was vietnamese lol
Same. Couldn’t tell either.
Because they are all korean
Well.. i'm asian and i can not tell Westerners apart even it they start speaking.
Lol they look all same...
Cuz they’re all the same tho, technically.
Hah that’s ridiculous we have blonde hair, black hair, brown hair, ginger hair etc you all have the same features/characteristics.
@@barnaby4232 slavs and germanii, northern and southern Europeans....
@@noone3272 yes, different ethnicities, same race just like East Asians accept we look more distinctive, it’s not a good or bad thing it just is.
@@barnaby4232 yeah, Being White in China means you can have any color of hair, Yellow/Red/Black/Brown, and many eye colors Blue(that’s most seen on Hollywood movies) Brown Green Red, whatever European area you come from you can call yourself British/ Americans whites, when speaking good English, Chinese can’t tell.
I’m mostly Chinese part Vietnamese but most people assume I’m Filipino haha. The Philippines and their people are very beautiful though and I’d be proud if I was from there.
And when they see a filipino? They think he is vietnamese or chinese. LoL
Allan lmao my Lit professor’s best friend is a Filipino guy who is always mistaken for Chinese. Wonder if they’ll ever guess right haha
Allan haha, My high school had tons of Chinese students from mainland China, and next to me, we looked like we were from different worlds. Probably based on the region we come from, with them from the north and me from the south? Then again, I spend lots of time in the sun and don’t look traditionally Chinese and I’m part something else. In truth, I feel like most of us are mixed to some degree. Don’t think I’ve ever met someone 100%. Being Asian is pretty cool though, lots of beautiful cultures, languages and people.
@@Elsisalittleconcerned china is huge man 🤣🤣🤣. its bigger than europe.
"chinese" ranges from white central asian to actual east asian to tibetans to southeast asian.
traditionally most people think the northern people is the true chinese.. since the chinese were north people and civilization untill some of them migrate downwards.
As a half Filipino (that has been mistaken for Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese and Hawaiian by white people all my life) I am somewhat insecure with my racial identity but thanks for your kind words ab Filipinos and the Philippines 👍🏽 :)
Ive been to Korea a lot of times and I can say that Koreans who lives abroad looks very different from Koreans in Korea. Koreans in Korea kinda look a like (almost same hairstyles, make up and clothes) while those who lived abroad doesn’t confirm to the “standard” korean looks i’ve seen so they are hard to distinguish from chinese/japanese and sometimes Filipinos (Filipinos are a very mixed race).
National Encoder I can agree with that. My korean Best friend’s niece who lives in the US looks really different from the Koreans in Korea. She is more tanner toned and her fashion is eye drawing(In a colorful way)
National Encoder fax I’m korean American and I get that from my grandparents all the time
I agree Filipinos are very mixed because of the influence of the Chinese, Spanish, Mexicans, and many other race
Yea Koreans actually have a really wide range of physical features but in Korea they all have the singular same idea of beauty. Asian people’s skin tones tan suuuuper easily also that’s why in the summer East Asians get assumed as Filipino LMAO
@@onlythegracee hmmm with your statement, are you trying to insult filipinos?? Im a korean/Spanish/filipino.. they say they cant see anything filipino on me but I love this country so much. Anyway one thing i love filipinos is that plastic surgery is a mortal sin, they value natural beauty unlike your favorite countries like Korea where they have to get Plastic surgery shit just to make themselves beautiful.
Someone thought i was japanese in high school and i just rolled with it. 3 years later i tell her im not and she's accusing me of "top 10 anime betrayals"
Lmao
So true
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🔥
Don't use that disrespectful term. Just write Japanese.
@ I'm sorry i had no idea that it was disrespectful at all and didn't intend it to be. Thought it was just a shorthand
As a Thai i cant really tell southeast asians apart to be honest i often got mistaken as a filipino or malaysian and mistaken others for being thai maybe we’re darker down here
Actually after living in China for almost 10 years I can differentiate between the japanese chinese korean and The mongols. I can’t differentiate vietnamese from southern Chinese people though. Rest I am good !
you can't tell just from face alone... most of the time it was through clothing and behavior...
even east asian themselves have trouble.... unless again clothing
If you see a white man can you tell if he's from Italy, Spain or France?
🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
Only by looking? It’s rather difficult to tell. You learn to distinguish who’s who by cultural clues instead of focusing on appearance. It’s like distinguishing middle easterners apart, but’s it’s tricky due to constant intermarriages through centuries after centuries.
For these three countries, yes. But if you asked about Sweden, Norway and Finland, that would be a harder one.
Yeah. But you need to have been around then to know. There’s subtle differences. Just like with Asians lol.
try Sweden, Finland or Estonia instead.
it is really difficult to tell a Filipino nowadays since many mainland chinese have married filipinos for decades. And also many many Filipinos now have mixed race. but if you look in the old photos of Filipinos, we mostly looked similar with malaysians and indonesians.
I’m Chinese. I had a classmate who looked Chinese but he was actually full Filipino lol. I was shook
Jessica Prasetyo I always thought I was full Chinese but after doing a DNA test I learned I have Korean, Thai, Indonesian, and even Native American blood. It’s really rare to be pure blooded
Jessica Prasetyo You should order a DNA test from 23andme. They send you a small kit with a spit tube and you mail it back to them and get the results in like 6 weeks. Super easy :)
Jessica Prasetyo You can order it on their website or on Amazon. My kit was $69 but it was because they had a summer deal. The original price is $99 I think.
@Jessica Prasetyo jesicca u forgot local indonesian like nias,dayak,sundanese,palembang similiar chinese indonesian or most javanese many intermeried with cina indo. yes today smua sudah berubah kecuali cina2 kaya seprti di jakarta mmg masih asli muke cina

Let's just be honest. Its almost impossible to different between Chinese, Koreans and Japanese. Even they themselves can't.
True 😂
I can tho :v base on their fashion style/ makeup
in fact, most of them can tell the difference..
@@wawa-vf4to agreed I have friends that r from china, korea, etc and they all can tell the difference between their ppl and foreigners.
@@wawa-vf4to I don't think their difference is from physical appearance, but rather from the way they dress, their language and maybe the way they present themselves. Just like in Africa, we cannot tell other black Africans apart unless they start talking

Asians doesn't look alike, but East Asians kinda do.
Koreans looks different.
Chinese and Japanese looks the same but Koreans for some reason have high cheekbones and the eyeshapes is different.

nanami They were right.
Include all Asians. Not just East and Southeast Asians. Don't forget Western, Central, Southern and Northern Asians
Nathalie Golding Yup! I'm an Asian from Israel!
ur middle eastern.....
+Aven Hojd There's actually no such thing as "Middle East". That's a made-up term coined by America to label all the Islamic regions in that part of the world.
In proper geographic terms, those Islamic countries are still within the Eurasian continental plate, which makes those countries be in "West to Central Asia"
Nathalie Golding but they are trying to figure out if that race looks different depending on the country.. Obviously Indian, Arab ,Persian and Russian Asians you can tell where they are from
Horny Aleks You are confusing the terms "race", "ethnicity", and "nationality".
"Race" is the physical characteristics of a person (skin colour, eye colour, hair colour).
"Ethnicity" refers to the cultural aspects of the person such as their ancestry.
"Nationality" is the person's relationship with their political state/country they were born or live in.
You can have multiple ethnicity and nationality , such as Egyptian Italian or Japanese American but only one race (even if mixed race -- that's still a separate category within race).
Btw, Arabs aren't only Muslims (but predominantly more of them are). There are also Christian Arabs. Just like how not every American is necessarily a Christian or Jewish.
When i was in hongkong airport , one pilipino asked me if im chinese hahahah when i start speak he was shock lol im pilipino hahaha i asked him why he think im chinese HE SAID BECAUSE IM WEARING SOCKS/and my skin color/ and my eyes ..

Update: (Not aware about other Asian related ethncities that look similar to Indians so correct me please if there is )
Mike90 susanoo Indians, Pakistanis, Sri Lankan’s and Bangladeshis look alike.
Sri Lankans and Bangladeshis are mostly dark. Indians are mixed. Pakistanis are mostly fair Persians are very much fair.
Alias Sobriquet i think bangladeshis look way difderent than indians
Filipinos,Indonesia,malaysian,thailand are look a like
Mike90 susanoo filipinos and thai and Indonesians and Vietnamies are look aliks tru
They are my favorite type of asians.
bruh I wud've gotten it wrong too. All Asians DON'T look alike but it's hard to determine wut part of Asia they're from. Same goes for whites and blacks. OMG and Hispanic people. NEVER mistake a liight-skinned Dominican for a Puerto Rican. Ur askn to be cussed out.
+PottyMoufMoFo hahahaha this made me laugh haha
I agree. All Asians look different but trying to guess whether they're from China or Korea, or Japan etc. is not possible for me. It's the same as if I tried to guess a white person's ethnicity. I don't look at white people and think, "oh, you're dutch!" Freak, I've got no idea where you're from. Haha. I currently live in S. Korea and it hasn't helped me distinguish :P To be honest I think it's mostly a myth but some people swear they can tell different ethnicities apart so who knows.
Annie Ho I... I don't know wut ur trying to say to me.
Reeves say wut now?
aileh rebel 😞😒
EVERYONE:
I'm a Filipino but i look like: korean/chinese/japanese/
me:
Looks like 50% filipina 50% taga pilipinas
I also wonder why all people think every asian has to be ONE full ethnicity. Like 100% korean ,100% japanese and so on.... ?
There are MANY MIXED ASIANS. Especially in southeast asia.
My friends daughter is half korean half thai.
Most people who are mixed in thailand are mixed with chinese (since thailand also has the most chinese population OUTside of china/taiwan).
Several fams i know have thai/japanese mixed kids, i know people with half pakistani/thai , half indian/thai mixed too (southeast asian & indian/pakistani is SOUTH asian). And i also know some thai-vietnamese, thai-mongolian, other thai-korean and thai-malaysian mixed people.... so
Interviewer: can you tell the difference between asians?
Me: yeah easy, listen to their language 😂
Same
How about reading?
Taga saan ka ba?
Not until you hear malay, indonesian, and some singaporean.
Filipinos can be anything, they can be white, black, hispanic, latin WE ARE BASICALLY ALL NATIONALITIES IN ONE NATION
Edit: Its just mestizos, why are ya’ll arguing bout mestizos in the replies .-. C H I L D R E N C A L M D O W N
RayJL_
yeah there are too many mestizos or mixed races
No we're not. We're asian, just go with it.
True
True, im filipino and sometimes i cant tell what i even am

Vanilla Juuri OMG same
NEON NYAGIC 😂 awesome
Im a filipino too and the best guesses from my teachers were turkey, tunesia, thailand and japanese
It's really funny that people think that my family is Filipino but we're Guatemalan xD
And I really love how the people weren't rude about the race like most people do. It really says a lot about a person♡
Even myself as an eastern asian have had many difficult times telling other asians apart 😂😭
I'm a Filipino and people are always like "You don't look Asian to me. " I DON'T LOOK ASIAN TO YOU? DO YOU WANT ME TO PUT ON TRADITIONAL CLOTHES, MAKE MY EYES SMALLER AND START SPEAKING CHINESE? it's just really annoying when people classify Asians as only Japanese, Chinese and Koreans. there's a big variety of nationalities in asia yknow? try and educate yourself sometimes
SarahKate Please go back to School
Coming from a born and raised Filipino, I hate it when Fil-Ams (Filipino-Americans) consider us Filipinos as pacific islanders tss
Just remember Philippines is in the Southeast ASIA!
Claude bru it’s just that Asians have the face features differently not that u have to wear there clothes? lol
I'm Filipino and people think I'm Chinese because of my eyes
-you can’t tell the difference?
- yeah that’s honestly because of my ignorance
*I love him for the honesty*
i'm Filipino and I have trouble determining if a person is Filipino. Filipinos can range from dark-skinned Malay-ish to light-skinned East Asian and even Caucasian (Spanish descent or Caucasian mix). I've got a full beard that's dark brown. if I have a hat and sunglasses on, people think I'm Caucasian. When I take off my glasses, some people get weirded out by the fact that I have Chinese eyes. It's funny though because overseas, Filipinos speak in Tagalog in front of me thinking that I couldn't understand them. A number of those conversations are about me. I love making it awkward by joining the conversation in Tagalog.
1:13 “that’s more because of my ignorance than anything else” I’m glad you acknowledge that :)
Try yelling ADOBO OR SINIGANG then filipino people would look at you😂😂
Love your comment!
If you yell, anybody would look at you. Filipinos would approach you, asking if you like it.
Or balut or tuyo (dry fish) or mga kababayan
Ikonx Got7 Or we would say komosta or ano? 😂🤣😂
Yes, it works! I tried it already.
*ALOT OF PEOPLE THINK MY MOM IS CHINESE WHEN SHE IS REALLY FILIPINO! (True story😂)*
u sure? maybe she has distant chinese-filipino ancestry like many filipinos do
I just went to Japan with my bf and his family (who are Filipino) and a couple Japanese people kept thinking his mom was Japanese lmaao (and Sky is right a lot of Filipinos have Chinese in them so this could be why the might have thought she was Japanese)
@@SlowpokeReads lol even my own coworkers thought i was japanese when i first went to my first internship
@@DannyDiNunzio WTF
Lots of people think my mums malaysian but she’s Burmese
A couple I met in a travel asked where I'm from. I make them guess. They named almost all the east and south east asian countries from Japan all the way down to Indonesia. I love their reaction when I said I'm from India. Yeah we exist in India too. A whole lot actually.
North East India?
Ya I know northeast india is different from Mainland india ❤love you guys
If you take the entire population of each race there are people who will look alike. In terms of nationality you simply can’t go to any race and just know were their from, but sometimes you do. Not just us Asians. I didn’t know one of the 3 of my hispanic friends were Dominican while another was Mexican but guess what I could tell them apart. The same way they didn’t know i was korean and till my Asian friend immediately knew I was and pointed it out. No one can tell anyone apart regardless of the race if there will always be a select few who look and don’t look alike.
Filipino's look similar with Malaysians and Indonesians since we do share the same ancestry (its unclear who came from where. Whether the Malay people went from south then north to the Philippine or from north to south) and our nations has been interacting before Europeans colonized that part of Southeast Asia. We also traded with the Chinese a lot during pre-colonial times and there were Chinese merchants who chose to migrate in Southeast Asia.
I am mistaken for Chinese even though I did not inherit the white skin like my cousins (I have olive skin) but I did inherit my great grandmother's eyes who happens to be 1/4 Chinese.
hinatamercury South philipines (sulu/mindanau) more related to brunei or malaysin ,when visayan in philipines related to indonesian. then north or luzon very close to guam and chamorro in micronesia and nativ taiwanese.
yes Indonesian there people have different variations of thais,malay, chinese,japanese, indian looks , even black or african in east even european - asian mixed, yes rice with variations people of skin, eye, hair etc.
hinatamercury but what happen is Spain colonized philippine for long time and also japanese and americans.. some people here has different look
I think Malaysian and Singaporean definitely looks much more East Asian than Filipinos and Indonesian since many of them have chinese blood. I have lots of friends from Asia by the way.
+ Ice Inducer, Lol totally defferent indian and indonesian, indonesian looks more chinese than to indian.
Filipinos have one distinguishing feature.... our nose..... lmao, except nowadays a lot of filipinos are mixed with different nationalities, so the era of ironed noses are soon fading......
Lol
Dayum I have this. Hahahahahahaha.
I have that squishy nose. I’ll carry it on dw 😂
"Dayum" means "Damn" in Spanish right? (Good thing I learned Spanish😄)
We should be proud of it!😂
In my Uni, there's a lot foreigners (mainly asians). One of my classmates, a Filipino, approached me in English because he taught I looked Malaysian.
They do in general. I mean western people can have curly or straight hair, blonde or dark hair, different eye colours while asian people have a lot fewer characteristics which mean they look similar.
They thought im mexican while im filipino 😗🙃
Azaliah Samsin yes..bcause filipino have many latino/hispanic blood. they more close to latinos than indonesian.
+dita84 bernadeta yeah
Azaliah Samsin I relate too much
SAME!!
i had a talked to this old lady and i thought she was filipino too but then she said that she is a mexican
I thought the girl in a blue hoodie a Filipino
LBVKOOKBTS too
i did too!
LBVKOOKBTS same
legit tho
Ikrr !!!!
For me, I feel like it comes down to styling. Asian diaspora living in other countries are hard to identify because they style themselves according to whatever standards exist in their communities but people who actually live in their country of origin style themselves according to that cultures standards.
There are some physical traits that may or may not reflect their ethnicity but it's not fool proof. Styling is much easier to identify.
Im from Greece but when I start watching KDrama series I have to pay full attention to the characters at the start because I often get confused which character is who....until I become familiar with them because they all look the same! My bestie is from Taiwan and he also tells me us Greeks and Italians all look the same
I think the Philippines and Thailand are most handsome Asian man , and girls in the Philippines are most beautiful in Asian
Why thank you but I honestly look like a potato
thank you
ji ya hahaha wtf XD then i think im a labanos
patola
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
I am Filipino and people mistaken me as Mexican
V im bengali and people think im mexican too lol
V more or less u should tell people if they can’t figure out if ur Asian or Mexican then, ur definitely Filipino 😂
Same bro they think im mexican but im filipino
Because i look like El Chapo
People think I'm Filipino but I'm Mexican. On rare occasions in winter I get mistaken as Chinese.
I love the interviewers hair! So dark and shiny! 😍
2:26 just simply love the way how the black girl was talking, and her hair style 😋
All Asian people do look alike?
No
all East Asian people do look alike?
Kinda YES
Agree
Yeah duh, every person who comes from the same area looks the same
Truee
Agree
Slavs look the same
Any Filipinos here? 😃
m-me?
Alot as you can see in the other comments including meh
@Ranem Shain 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🙋♀️
Ako po
“Youare awesome”
“Thankyou”
“Youare awesome”
“Thankyou”
“I was hoping youre telling im awesome too”
Thats actually really an asian way of thinking.
In Africa, all North and South Eastern Asia people are called Chinese - I'm also guilty of being one of those people who thinks like that (ignorant). This is why I'm taking this initiative of watching these kind of videos to educate myself about Asian people ethics groups. Awesome video by the way bro!
Westeners: ABSOLUTELY NOT!!
asians: yeah we do
For Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, Koreans and Singaporeans they are mostly look the same. While Filipinos, Indonesians, Malay and Thai are mostly look similar.
👍👍
ppl often mistaken me as Korean and Chinese while I’m Vietnamese 😅
yeah it happens to me,too.Vietnamese looks more like East Asian that Southeast Asian tbh.But may we don't have small eyes like the other East Asian so it's how to recognize us(not offend and racist btw)
If Koreans themselves couldn't identify their own people then its an impossible task for us LOL
Considering the Korean side take the same eye and nose surgery all the time and THEN put the same make up styles nonstop. Seeing a regular Korean doesn't match what the media portrays.
Lmao!!!
+Gnat Foehn It' different...Korean artist and regular Korean
Right?
