Hmmm... well, I'm not a full blooded Chinese, but I am a quarter Chinese. My dad is half, and my grandmother is full. They both hail from Honolulu, Hawaii. My great-grandfather, Wong Quansing, moved there, from what my grandmother said, from China. I'm not sure what part of China my family is from, though, although I would love to find out.

Hmm... I think I've seen your picture before... what other forums do you visit?

Dear Bryan,
Judging from your great-grandfather name spelled in Cantonese , it is probable that he hail from Guangdong. Most of immigrants in the past came from Guangdong and Fujian province.
Best wishes

Standing on the wall of a city ruins,  could be Turk, Khitan or Ugihur.  Location is about 30 km west of Khara Korim.  This was reportedly used by Ogedei Khan as a summer camp.  There is a hot mineral spring located nearby.

That's strange, Gubook, because even if I hadn't known you were Korean, I would have identified you as one (like if I passed by you on the street).

Hm...That's interesting. Most Koreans don't believe that I'm Korean until after maybe the second week I tell them.

Haha, I actually showed one of my friends those pictures and she said they look nothing like me. :P

You are right, you don't look very Corean. I understand why some would think you are Filipino. Not that there's anything wrong with that (in Jerry Seinfield tone). In fact, if you were Filipino, you'd probably be a star in the Philippines XD
