We were all once Chinese

I thought it was going to be this......

if you go to a Native American tribe and show them this, will they welcome you with open arms???  just curious.

[YAX]

Yup. You could look at it as: "OH, I must be Chinese" or you can look at it and say "Wait, I"m Hmong daymit!"

[theking]

We were all once Chinese 

That's probably more true than not...

But then again, who really knows how accurate these tests are..

[Cali Guy]

I would not be surprised if majority of Hmong dna are like this. In another thread, I jokingly mentioned how the majority of modern Hmong Chinese are not Hmong anymore because the Chinese warlords were ruthless but could be more than expectations.

DNA is very accurate but human errors still exist.

Yep, I paid for the kit so hope it's "accurate"....Looks like it's accurate enough to reunite these Koreans  :


Long-lost siblings have emotional reunion after 23andMe kit brought them together 34 years after they were abandoned in South Korea

A brother and sister who were abandoned by their father in South Korea 34 years ago met face-to-face for the first time last week after being brought together by a 23andMe DNA test.

Earlier this summer, 38-year-old Renee Alanko bought a DNA kit because she was looking to start a family and wanted to know what kind of genetic health issues she might carry, The Oregonian reported.

Instead, she got a major surprise: she had a sibling living just one state north.

Justin Kragt, 36, was two years old when he was left outside of a theater in Seoul in 1984. Less than 24 hours later, his older sister, then four, was left alone at a market, after her father gave her money to go buy a treat. The woman who found her discovered a note in her pocket, telling her the girl was an orphan and to take her to the police station.

The woman who found her discovered a note in her pocket, telling her the girl was an orphan and to take her to the police station.

"I knew about him all this time," Alanko told ABC News. "I just never thought I'd ever meet him...this is really amazing."

Alanko previously tried to hunt down her birth family, hiring an adoption detective to help her search for her father on a trip back to her native country in 2008. But none of the 200 potential men she reached out to claimed her as their daughter. So she wasn't looking for her biological family when she took the DNA test.

Kragt had other intentions when he bought his 23andMe kit in 2014. While he believed he was an only child, he hoped that the DNA test might lead him to some distant relatives, and his search proved successful.

After discovering the match, Alanko reached out to Kragt and they discovered that they had been abandoned close to each other, and just hours apart.

Last week, the two met face-to-face for the first time when Alanko flew to Portland, Oregon.

Cameras were rolling the moment she strode out of the terminal and into the arms of her brother, embracing him for the first time in more than three decades. One of the first things Alanko did was touch her brother's nose, pointing out the similarity to her own.

The reunion, which took place on Kragt's 36th birthday, was emotional. At several points in their interview at the airport, Kragt broke down crying. Though they are practically strangers, his sister brought him in for a hug, a familial instinct kicking in.

"I always thought I was alone in the world and I was content with that," Kragt said at the airport, his arm around his sister.

"Now you're stuck with me," Alanko replied, both breaking out into laughter.

Similar ways they apprehended the golden state killer and recently the nor cal rapist. Well done for science!
