Apparently the editors of People have a bit of a problem differentiating between Asian males. On page 38 of this week's issue, in which an interview with Korean Speed Racer actor Karl Yune is accompanied by text identifying him as Korean pop star Rain.

yeah, well, we all look alike.
Welcome to the world of: lack-of-diversity. I haven't been in the People office but I can guess what back ground about 95% of the staff has. I'm surprised this kind of mistake doesn't happen more often...
He's a nice-looking guy. People needs to learn to fact-check.
Hilarious. I googled Rain and they indeed don't look anything alike.
Similar to the actors who play DL & the Haitian on Heroes - they really don't look anything alike except for superficially both being tall black men, but apparently they're confused in magazines, websites, etc. all the time.

The look the same to the people who are writing those magazines.
Hey HuffPo... Both Rain and Yune are in Speed Racer... but the pic mix-up is kinda funny.
Yeah. If I had to guess, the interview is actually with Rain. They've just included the wrong picture.
Wow. Sad. The guy from People could have just checked on imdb or wikipedia.
