Things you don't know about Korea: You are born at age 1

My blog entry for this time will expose to you what are things that you didn't know about Korea. Some things might be common to you but some may not. 

1. You are born at age 1

When you are born in Korea, you are immediately considered to be one year old. This means that whatever your actual age, instead your Korean age will always be one year older. Think that’s weird? It gets more bizarre. All Koreans on New Years become a year older instead of their actual birthday. So that means that if a baby is born on December 31st, they are one, then the next day they are considered 2 years old. No wonder they live to be so much older!
