People Magazine Mistakes Rain for Karl Yune

Speed Racer star Rain, aka rookie racer Taejo Togokhan, must have been glad he was featured in latest issue of People.

But instead of the 26-year-old Korean actor/pop star (inset), the mag accidentally published a picture of Karl Yune (Rick Yune’s younger brother).

Poor Rain!

Oh poor oppa!! aiya.. >.<

Poor Rain T_T
Anyway, Who is Karl Yune,Rick Yune ?

….stupid stupid People Magazine!!!

Dear erica,

you’re telling you’re a college graduate, and here I thought you were 12 year old.

How comes you think that “it’s universally known that all whites do not look alike”? Of course to most asian all whites DO look alike, just like to most white people, all asians look the same. And Asians make up HALF of the planet population. Technically, your “universal fact” can’t be universal because 50% disagree (and I haven’t started to count the africans, even though I think they can not tell whites apart either).

Leah has tried to make her point clear several times, but it seems that you don’t have the ability to understand, so I guess someone else should step in, before you guys throw even “prettier” words to each other faces.

As for “the lack of genetic variation”, now that’s another racist assumption. It’s just a typical excuse of those whites who can’t tell asians apart. How do you think we can distinct Indians, Chineses, Japaneses, Koreans, Philippines, Thais….? My own country has 52 ethnics, and we can tell the major ones apart by looking at them. All thanks to the “genetic variation” that you think we don’t have.

Honestly, the word is changing. Please stop believe whatever you’ve been told. Open your eyes, it’s time.

What an insult to Rain!!!

Phuong–I’ve traveled all over the world. I’ve seen things you probably have never dreamed of. I don’t need you to tell me to open my eyes about anything.

When I said that all white people don’t look alike, I wasn’t talking about different “white” nationalities (Irish, German, Polish, etc.) Clearly it would be difficult to tell what a white person’s country of origin would be without asking them. All I was saying to Leah is that I don’t know of anyone who would argue that it is difficult to differentiate between white people on an INDIVIDUAL basis, or between any two asian people, african people, etc. Before trying to “educate” me please go back and re-read my posts,although I do apologize if something wasn’t clear. If you let up on the condescension you will see that you and I are arguing the same exact thing. This is my last post on the subject.

I agree with Phuong. Erica, you’re just not Asian. You don’t understand. (no, i’m just kidding.) And some bet betty person posted,” The only thing that was similar were SMALL EYES.” People need to shut up and listen to the truth. Not all Asians have small eyes. In fact, I have medium size eyes.

omg, they do NOT look alike at all!!! what were they thinking? rain is so much cuter!!!

Well People is printed in America right?? No surprise here, Americans are ignorant like that.

My god. i feel that RAIN totally reigns over that Karl Yune in terms of charisma and looks….i don’t think they look the same at all. plus, omg. these people are totally not doing their job right.

Oh yeah, looking at the comments. What’s wrong with Asian people looking similar? I think that sometimes Angmohs look similar to me too. It isnt surprising that people look similar no matter their race.
