Abstract

Key Points: GWAS of normal facial variation in the Korean population was conducted using a Korean genome chip.Previously reported genetic signals associated with , , and loci were replicated in the Korean populations.Genetic signals in and loci were identified as novel variants for corresponding facial features.
