South Koreans have become a year or two younger as a new law aligns the nation's two traditional age-counting methods with international standards. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-66028606 13 Likes 1 Share

For that don't understand Summary starting today, june 28th, south korea is abolishing the korean age system and officially adopting the international age system! 📝 They're now following the international age system (with some exceptions), making them 1 or 2 years younger. 1 Like |

They had always calculated age based on conception, which makes them about one year at birth. This theory I loved because I believe life starts at conception not at birth. But now, they want to switch to international standards. I don't like it personally but o well.... 9 Likes |

Previously, the most widely used calculation method in Korea was the centuries-old "Korean age" system, in which a person turns one at birth and gains a year on 1 January. This means a baby born on 31 December will be two years old the next day. Just imagine. Thank God someone with senses is finally correcting the abnormally. 4 Likes 1 Share |
