The Difference Between Asians, Filipinos, and Koreans!?

Question

okay doesn't folks consider "Filpinos" and "Koreans" as Asians as well? Or is Asian and Filpinos and Koreans most definetly unrelated and nothing alike? And if so then how come?

Answer 1

Koreans are ethnically Asians, but Filipinos consider themselves Pacific Islanders.

Answer 2

When I was in Korea they all seemed to think they were a separate people from the rest of the world. Filipinos are very mixed up racially but are closer to pacific islanders than Asians.

Answer 3

in my humble opinion

the big three, as agreed by some, are:
chinese, korean, japanese

being viet, i would add vietnamese^^

many filipinos and non-filipinos considered filipinos, to be pacific islanders, partly perhaps cuz of their interaction with europe... also, filipinos tend to look more southeast asian, as oppose to the relatively-lighter skin color and heavy-industrialized asian countries

Answer 4

Phillipinos and Koreans are Asians last time I heard

Answer 5

Answer 6

They are all Asians... Asia is a continent not a country. I am so tired of people asking so are you from Asia or Middle East..... look at a map...no offense. ( sorry it just makes me kind of mad that people still don't know what countries are in Asia.)

Answer 7

Answer 8
