Like pronouncing the rolling Rs in Spanish is something most white people have trouble with, not specific ethnicities. Japan only has the one sound (the one that's inbetween). Korean has both that inbetween sound, and the "L" sound like in English (or at least very very close, to the point that it'd be clearly an "L" sound to both parties), so their R's might sound weird but they'd be clearly differentiated from their L's. Chinese, or at least Mandarin, has all three and so speakers of it should have no difficulty with this.

Like pronouncing the rolling Rs in Spanish is something most white people have trouble with, not specific ethnicities. Basically, yeah. Different languages can have different hurdles, African tongue-clicking being probably the most extreme when compared to what you might be used to, but by and large "L" versus "R" really isn't a common one and it's only because of the prevalence of anime/Japanese in the gaming community that such a confusion happens now.
