New Delhi, June 28, 2023, Wednesday
Once you cross the age barrier you never come back but there is a country whose life expectancy has dropped by two years. The name of this country is Korea Island South Korea. According to the information received, the traditional counting system of calculating age in South Korea has ended. Now the system that is adopted in the world will be adopted. Hence, people have suddenly become one to two years younger. If the age of a girl is 24 years, now it will be reduced to 22 or 23 years.
Henceforth counting of date of birth will be done accordingly. Till now it used to happen that the age of a child increased by one to two years within 24 hours of birth, this traditional system has been done away with. The age system adopted so far is called the Korean Age System. According to this system age at birth is calculated. When the year changed, his age increased by one more year.
If a child was born on December 31, then according to the Korean age system, it was considered as 1 year and if it was born on January 1, it was considered as 2 years. It means that the age was increased by two years in just 24 hours. There are 3 ways to calculate age in South Korea. First, for legal and administrative jobs, age is counted only by the International System. In another way, when a child is born, his age is considered as 0, but when the month of January begins, it is considered as 1 year.
According to the third calculation, as soon as the child is born, his age is taken as one year, when the month of January comes, adding another year to it, the child becomes two years old. These three ways of calculating age will now be forgotten and only the date and month will be followed. South Korea President Yoon Suk Yeol has always advocated for the abolition of this tradition system. He promised to abolish this system even during the elections. In December last year, MPs voted in favor of scrapping the old system. Now South Korea age will be calculated according to international standard.
