Question about Japan

Are Koreans genetically closer to Chinese or Japanese?

This article explores the genetics of East Asian populations, including Koreans, Chinese, and Japanese people. Recent studies have shown that there are many similarities in the genotypes of these three populations, although subtle differences do exist depending on specific traits such as skin color or facial features. Additionally, while it appears that Korean individuals may have a slightly closer connection genetically speaking with either Chinese or Japanese individuals depending on which trait you look at, ultimately all three groups share many commonalities in terms of their genotypes which suggests strong historical ties between them all regardless of any minor variations over time due to external factors outside of genetics itself.
