who am i?

when i was in Vietnam, the locals kept asking if i was Vietnamese. my Korean-American friend here in Seoul says it's because i'm so pale. with French and Chinese occupations in Vietnamese history, i share similar features with many Vietnamese.

when i was in Cambodia, no one mistook me for a Cambodian.

(this beautiful Cambodian woman is an Apsara dancer carved into the walls of Angkor Wat. The walls have hundreds if not thousands of Apsara dancer carvings.)
