feng min is apparently chinese but her cosmetic is japanese?
So speculation online says that feng min is a chinese name so she is chinese, but the "masuku bijin" cosmetic translates in Japanese to mean "mask beautiful woman" i am confusion.

Yes, she is Chinese, and the Doctor was also meant to be a bit Chinese-themed.
Not all cosmetics must have everything to do with the Character's ethnicity, there are a handful of other cosmetics that don't correlate to the specific character's nationality.

It is not speculation. Feng Min is as Chinese a name as you can get (if people would pronounce it right), and the righting on her shirt is in Chinese.
Like Fichite said, cosmetics have nothing to do with a character's nationality. Susie and Ace have a Chinese skin. Does that make them Chinese? No.
And even if they did, Min has TWO cosmetics based on the Chinese New Year, the full set of which is a Qipao, which "is often seen as the quintessential Chinese national dress" according to differencebetween.net. (Sorry if this seems hostile, Min is my second favorite Survivor and I tend to get protective of things I like).

I mean it's definitely nice to see more variety of stuff in the game.

Well, David got a Dio de los Muertos outfit alongside Jane while he's British to his core. Think of it like this, certain skins are designed with a character in mind and others are designed and sorta gifted to a character because of aesthetic. I guarantee you that if Yui was in before the design contest a year ago, she probably would've got the Japanese skin and not Feng.

Literally no one pronounces her name right, not even the devs.

I know, and it annoys me to no end. Not that I have room to speak, since it turns out I've been pronouncing it wrong for a while too (though more correct than most people). I had to ask one of my friends (native-born Taiwanese, where they speak a dialect of Chinese, like how Brazil speaks a dialect of Portuguese, America speaks a dialect of English, etc.) how to pronounce it. He described it as "Foong Min" when he wrote it down for me, not "Fayng Mihn" or "Fahng Mene."
At least they did her Adept achievement right as "Adept Min" is using her proper name. Of course, they forgot about this later on, but what can you do?

Feng min is Chinese (that name is common in china)

like Mikeadatrix said, before Yui and Yamaoka were put in game, if the devs wanted to release their Asian aesthetic to attract more buyers, they got a pretty limited character pool to choose from.
Feng Min is obviously a Chinese name, if I get it right, Japanese names never possess Velar Nasal sound such as "-eng" "-ang" or "-ong".

I'm just gonna say it loud and clear without hesitation the character's ethnicity should not define what type of clothes they wear on the daily everyone including these characters can wear what they want to wear just cause Feng is chinese should mean she should wear nothing but clothes from asian culture.

Vote Up This Comment So The Dev's Give Feng Min a K-Pop Skin

Is a chinese person not allowed to wear japanese clothing? What you wear does not define who you are nor where you're from.

no one was saying that they shouldnt, to my knowledge, i was trying to nail in the coffin the question in my mind of whether she was which asian ethnicity she was as she is my main.
