Becca* Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 yeahh I've been mistaken for Japanese, Korean, half white/half asian one time I said no to this Korean guy when he asked me if I was Korean and he was like 'weh-yo?' wtf....lol I'm like 'because I'm Chinese', I watch a lot of K-drama, so that's why I knew he was asking 'why?'...he thought I was lying, so he started talking to me in Korean...I walked away lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest don'tpan!c Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 I always get mistaken as Chinese, but I'm Vietnamese. I even got mistaken as Hispanic once. It was really weird because I don't look Hispanic at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cbxjenn Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 i think i look chinese considering i have tiny eyes :X but a few things always make people im other than chinese. - my last name. it's Ng, but since the asians at my school is 95% viet, they think my last name was shorten from Nguyen. =_= yeah. -my interests. i was a hardcore kpop fan since 2001, so people actually thought i was korean. err. people who know im not viet always ask me "are you chinese or korean?"

Guest BECKIEEE Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 I'm Chinese and sometimes people mistaken me for being Korean, even Korean people, it's not a big deal although it gets kind of awkward when old Korean ladies come up to me and ask me for directions in Korean but I feel bad, I just can't help them since they don't speak English and obviously I don't speak Korean o.O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest n ssIw I oxox Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 I always get mistaken for something else because I am viet, but I'm kinda dark. I like my tan..lol. They usually mistake me as filipino or something...ocasionally i get mistaken as Hawaiian, which is pretty cool =) I take that as a compliment cause I think some Hawaiians are very pretty.

Guest quyenann Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 I either get Chinese, Korean or Japanese and rarely ever Vietnamese. I'm Vietnamese and I feel like I like Vietnamese too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EXQU1S1TE Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 All the time. I usually get Chinese or Vietnamese. And then the person would try guess my ethnicity and goes down the list of asians until I tell them I'm Cambodian. Then they don't believe me, but I know what I am so whatever lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest XhoXho Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 ALL the time. I'd rather people just assume something. 'Cause it gets the freaking heck on my nerves when people feel that they just HAVE to identify my ethnicity. I mean, wth?? It's not something that people have to know, unless you're constantly hanging out with my family or getting married to me. geez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest NotFromThisPlanet Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 a lot of people always assume that i am an ethnicity that i am not. it doesnt bother me at all. eventually, after naming 6-7 they guess what i am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
