It's all possible, I suppose, but I'm a little skeptical. It's not like you to hold out on being half something for this long.
take it up with my mother which in fact is 1/2 chinese as her mom was chinese/mandarin my grandfather was korean which iguess technically i'm 1/4 chinese and 1/4 korean. never said anything about indians. i do remember having a fight about proper use or identification of the word indian/injun. (which is no different than calling someone cajun.)
infact korea is a mix of china and japan. we share alot of words tradition with both. as both larger countries annexed korea several times exploiting them for food and resources.
the last annexation was after WWI when the US awarded korea to japan a then ally, who promptly killed off all the ruling class or brought them to japan as 'guests' to live next to the emperor. while retaining title all lands were given over and korea because a living slave state till the end of WWII.
My mom and grandmother use to tell terrible stories of japanese oppression and cruelty. I grew up hating japanese like black people hated whites, the only thing was i had names and faces saw the bend backs old scars and broken constitutions.
Infact had a grandfather on both sides of WWII.
