If I recall correctly, I think they say you can take 60% of the Japanese and plop them dowm most anywher in NE Asia and they are indistinguishable from the local population. The Japanese are much more recognizable by clothes and mannerisms than by physical features (relative to the Koreans, Chinese and Vietnamese, that is).

That's not been my experience. The Japanese I've met tend to be taller and darker or lighter depending on what part of the island chain they are from........in the south, they are darker and in the north, lighter. Their faces tend to be more narrow with high cheekbones.

The Koreans, Chinese and Vietanamese, in general, tend to be shorter with rounder faces. Of course, there are exceptions.

We should defer to Taro and Ten. Apparently, they are the experts on things Asian.
