I know y'all are trying to be open minded, so first off, you're doing great! That said, you're doing so well it's kind of at risk of being opened so wide your brain might fall out

Seriously though, I would absolutely think someone was... being silly (to put it nicely) if they asked which Korea an American was from (this for sure wouldn't apply to an 8 year old tho)

And you are from either of these Koreas?

I personally would not ask an American which Korea he is from ("which Korea an American was from") but I had extensive conversations about the separation of the countries with actual Koreans. I commented about my personal expierience.

Edit to add: I rather have my brain fall out from open-mindedness than one that shrivels up like a raisin from ignorance.
