I've got a map that confidently tell me they're both Ural-Altaic ... but they this for what it's worth, since the same map tells me Iraq is IE-speaking ... Ok, the later is a misprint, but some think that Japanese and Korean are related to Altaic (I don't know whether this is a majority opinion), and Altaic is sometimes grouped together with Uralic (that is Finno-Ugric and Samoyedic) as Ural-Altaic.
