Just as common as people named Huang are supposed Asian language and culture experts who know almost nothing about South Asia. This is me.

Whoops, I meant Kim was common in South Korea. (Though it’s the same name as Jin in Chinese, but only ranked 62 as that)


Yeah, it’s the same surname. In Asia, for various reasons (particularly the languages and writing systems) there are generally far fewer surnames to choose from vs. the Western world. For example, almost 1/4th of the population of South Korea has the surname Kim. Huang is the 7th most common Chinese surname, with 32 million people holding it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_common_Chinese_surnames#400_character_list As @crimeislegalnow@ani.social notes, it’s even more common in Taiwan. It looks like more than 8% have it there.

I read this multiple times thinking the bald spot was relevant somehow.
