Only at first glance, it seems to an inexperienced traveler that all Japanese, Koreans and Chinese are the same in face and are no different from each other. In fact, it is not so difficult to correctly identify the nationality of the representatives of these Asian peoples. There is a fairly large set of criteria that can be divided into three large groups: behavior, face, appearance.
1. "These lovely kind faces"
Facial features are the most controversial way of determining nationality. Nevertheless, there are more or less stable signs that are characteristic not for the majority, but still for a fairly wide masses of people from the corresponding region. The Japanese are easy to recognize by their large features, elongated and large nose. Koreans often have very dark eyes, almost like sunglasses. The Chinese are the hardest of all, since they themselves are very heterogeneous. In different parts of the Celestial Empire, Chinese men can be very different. In general, among all Asians, the Chinese have facial features most resembling those of Caucasians (with the exception of residents of the southern regions).
Now, as for the beautiful half of humanity. Small facial features, the presence of freckles, thick eyebrows and thick dark hair with a high degree of probability give out a Japanese woman. Big eyes and thin eyebrows - Korean. With Chinese women, everything is as difficult in this matter as with Chinese men.
2. "Such modest people"
Demeanor is a very striking marker of nationality. In many countries of the region, the practice of bowing is common as one of the gestures of courtesy. Pay attention to how the person bows (if he does it in principle). So, the Chinese prefer to do only a slight nod of their head as a sign of respect, while in Japan and Korea it is a deep bow that is common. Also, the Chinese are much more likely to shake hands.
You should also pay attention to how the Asian behaves in public places. The Japanese and Koreans tend to look collected and even enslaved. People in China are usually more relaxed and inclined to communicate. On average, the Chinese speak louder than the Japanese.
3. "They meet by their clothes"
Among all the inhabitants of Asia, it is the Koreans who dress the brightest. Does the young man look like an anime character? With a 95% chance he is from Korea. Does the girl have bright red lipstick and an overabundance of makeup on her face? Most likely she is Korean. Koreans love everything bright, and in general, they have a special attitude towards cosmetics and clothes.

Japanese people who have outgrown adolescence look like the exact opposite of Koreans. Their clothes are usually dominated by cold colors. The clothes are modest and strict. Everything should (according to the Japanese) be dignified and harsh, within the bounds of decency. A real Japanese's wardrobe is a fair of conservatism.
Among all Asians, the Chinese are closest to Western civilization in matters of clothing (and this despite the fact that in all other matters they are almost the farthest from it). The inhabitants of the Middle Kingdom dress a little old-fashioned. A real golden mean between Japanese austerity and Korean pretentiousness. First of all, the people of China appreciate the convenience and functionality of their clothes.
