Korean Ages

The age system here is interesting. When a child is born, they are considered to be 1. They then add a year on New Year's Day. So they don't actually add another year onto their age on their birthday. And if a child was born on 29th December, they would be 2 on New Year's Day, when in our reckoning they would be 3 days old. Interesting stuff, eh?
