No, these are not my "so called 'other photos'" but ones you've picked out, which to me seems somehow trying to make the point that fit your argument, whereas I actually just picked the first photos I saw with a lot of frontal faces. You could've posted a lot of other, more productive photos.

The problem with these photos is that you can't be sure that any particular individual is actually a full-blooded Korean. Many of them appear to be Americans of European ancestry or Euro-Asian hybrids. Even the ones who appear "Asian" are not necessarily all Korean.

Well, I'm not going to argue over whether they are Euro-Asian hybrids. 99% of them look just like typical Korean Americans.

I, for one, have participated in functions of both the Korean Student Assocation and the Japanese Student Association at my university, and I also know many other persons of European ancestry, mixed European and Asian ancestry, or non-Korean or non-Japanese Asian ancestry who participated in the respective groups.

Well, where is this, in the US or Japan? And it appears to me you haven't been to a university with a lot of Koreans or live in a region with a lot of them. Perhaps your first impressions are of a limited number of Korean, say South Korean graduate students who had broad noses, and the impression stuck.

My point is that you seem to be insisting on something, finding excuses or deliberately making a case, without just letting the numbers and pics speak for themselves.

As for the individuals in these photos who appear to be full-blooded Asians, about half of them (particularly the females) have the typical short, piggy noses that I was talking about yesterday. This assures me that at least a majority of the participants are of mostly Korean ancestry. :P

Post some pics. I want to get an idea of what you think is piggish, short noses. that I might agree on, but the average Korean nose, objectively speaking, is not wide relative to the world at large.
It has already begun.
