        How bizarre. Does his wife prefer to thought of as Japanese in origin ? This is some strange family drama. No one could innocently make such a gaffe. Could he ?

        Why would he even do that? Surely he knows the Chinese already know who his wife is, and surely he knew he would look like a fool.

        I have a friend who was born in China, but raised in Japan. Maybe that’s what happened here - he was using the country she was raised? ...or he’s just an idiot.
