If you watch K dramas the male actors always typically have smaller heads but they're like 6'1 on average

Koreans are 5ft8.5 on average.

Exactly, I've been looking at Asian demographics some recently and it looks the younger generation is slightly taller on average, yet most are still well below 6ft

5ft 8.5 is literally average height. It's the same as US, or southern European countries.

6ft1 is like 1/15 guys
