People always ask me if I was Korean or Japanese or Chinese. (I'm Chinese) Sometimes I get tired or saying it over and over again, and always being mistaken for something I'm not.

japanese and korean. though not often. usually by American, they can tell from one to the other, becaseu we really do look alike.  

[Beixuelong]

I've been mistaken for almost any northern european citizen... British, German, French, even Swedish (which I always find offensive!)! scream

I think I look as Finnish as a Finn can look but I suppose no one else knows (outside Finland) what a Finn should look like. biggrin

Have you ever been mistaken for being Korean, Japanese or any other asian nationality?

It happens to me a lot and it really bothers me.

Also how do you deal with this?

Yes, Korean, or hispanic, but so what, some people just don't know any better, it's not like their out to get you. I like it that know one can figure me out.
