Interesting!
Some doubts happens to me. Korean language as well as Japan shared some Dravidic words despite the long real and ethnic distance, on which no satisfactory interpretations has been agreed among even scholaric society as I heard.
For the similarity as example, Hulbert(Homer Hulbert - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia), one of earlist Western resident, published "A Comparative Grammar of the Korean Language and the Dravidian Dialects in India. Seoul(1905)."
Accordinng to Mandschure's thought I can suppose, the similarity was fully imported from paleo-Japanese in moderner times. But the problem is that the common words are concentrated on very basic words like father and mother. Whether the evaluation about basicity was performed fairly I'm totally unaware because I'm pure non-liguistist and this data was supposed to be not corrected from a single kind of Dravidic dialect(Dravidic consists of some 7 or so dialects as I heard).
But the original graph does not imply that Korean have never southern genetics. That as I thought rahter means that if 10% Japan has Southern look, Korea has 5% maybe. They really have so as anyone's country's distritubtion. haha. any way, I've always born the mind that it is very mysterious. Who would give a good answer? And I'd like to see the Mongolian and other Central Asians' position in the graph.
