Turning 21 ~The Korean age system


In Korea theres something called Korean age, which basically adds one or two
more years to your age.

 Many people don't know how to calculate their Korean
age, but it's pretty simple. 

So what's your Korean age???
Below ill show you how it works:

(This year - Your Birth year) + 1 = Your Korean age

Example:

(2014 - 1990) + 1 = 25

(2014 - 1983) + 1 = 32




On the day that you are born, you are experiencing the 1st year of
your life, therefore in Korea, you are 1 (year of age).


So, everybody is 1 year of age on the day that they are born.




1. If you were born this year, you are experiencing your 1st year in
life, so you are 1.


2. If you were born last year, you are experiencing your 2nd year in
life, so you are 2.




I celebrated my 31st Birthday yesturday so according to the
Korean age system I just turned 32
One year older than my international age.



Personally age doesnt bother me as long as you stay young at heart you will forever be 21"
