RE: My Birthday, Age in Korea, and Why it Matters
So you get to age a year every 6 months? New years, and then your other birthday in June? So you age twice as fast as most people? I guess we know how Confucius got his name now, by confusing everyone as to how old they are.
Its just two different ways of counting birthdays.
So Korean way, is you are one year when you are born, then add a year everytime the Lunar New Year passes.
Then, the Western way that we use.
Yeah, he was pretty confusing at times lol
