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!

Take the “All Asians Look Alike” test at AllLookSame.com.

I love my asian boys (especially my Yunho baby), they are very talented, humble and handsome and their success is based in their hard work not in scandals.

The people in People are very stupid. Not something new however.

welcome to planet earth. can’t get angry with people for not being able to tell asians apart… they can’t even tell black people apart either.
at least it’s not mistaken identity in a criminal case or something

My racist mom flat out told me that all white people looked alike. So I grew up thinking Barbara Walters was Bea Arthur. Now, I am married to a White man and I can confirm – they don’t all look alike – my honey is one of a kind!

Racist. Where does this theory come from? Not all Asians look alike – all you need is to actually pay attention – People is racist.

I cannot believe you put a website up to play an “all asians look alike” game. this is the last time i will ever view your web site. why don’t you put up a all caucasion or african american look alike web site, or would that be disrespectful?

You know that if they confused two hollywood blondes, they’d be in deep ****. But with Rain? I bet they’ll get away with it. =(

Leah–anyone who doesn’t live under a rock would not need your confirmation that all white people don’t look alike.

That asian look-alike game tripped me up several times. I thought I’d be a lot more accurate especially considering I’ve got several Korean relatives. But it was fun!

^^^^^^^^^^^

You’re a jerk! So you don’t think we need a confirmation that white people don’t look alike but you could not pass the all asians don’t look alike game? You’re a dumbie and racist

Maybe I should start a new website allwhiteslooksame.com and have them choose a white person and distinguish them from german, russian, british, american, australian, irish, and french. As for the article, I’m not surprised that an american magazine made that mistake… I am surprised though than an asian male (alexis is a guy) would make the mistake however.
