If it is just a word, you might not able to tell whether it is Korean, Chinese or Japanese like 教育改革, it could be either of the 3 languages (even if you are native). But when you are trying to express an sentence, then

- the one that is still all chinese characters is Chinese
- the one that has hiragana and katakana in addition to Kanji is Japanese
- the one with Hangul and limited Chinese characters would be Korean
