I don't know if it's blindness. Korea is a relatively small and homogenous country. You could rather say that they have extra Korean-distinguishing powers.
Ironic, because the South Korean national team manager in the 2018 World Cup acknowledged this himself and took advantage of it to try to get an edge on an opponent
But inter-racial face blindness is a real thing. They're discriminating against a real "disorder" (evolutionary variance, really).
Stereotyping is a basic evolutionary process, used by our brain to save time and effort when dealing with similar patterns.
So basically all "anti-racism" measures are just them rejecting evolutionary science.

I’ve had Korean friends tell me all western actresses look the same.
Where is the racial slur?

So only Whites can't say that as ask Asians if they can tell Black people apart..
Well the guy is Uruguayan so he may not be that white
Uruguayans are the whitest South Americans. Almost exclusively European ancestry.
I'll go further, if it weren't for the haircuts, I couldn't tell them apart from the north koreans.
The south koreans would be a few inches taller and not emaciated.
Journalist asked a Chinese and Vietnamese for comment.
Cousins probably does have a high chance of looking alike. Just look at them unibrows of pakistani cousins lol.
I watched the Tyson fight and this 50yo woman next to me kept thinking every single black guy on TV was Mike Tyson, it was pretty damn funny.
It's pretty common for people to have a hard time seeing facial differences among different species.
Amusingly, South Korea is rampant with cosmetic surgery specifically to make them all look like a very well-defined ideal. Both men and women.
