oh no.. she's 20 now. .? :gemnoway:

i thought she's just turning 19. . .

In Korea, they have this tradition where newborns start at one years old, and then each passing of the lunar new year, rather than the birthday, adds one year to the person's age. In other words, the first year of their life is counted as one instead of zero, and then on the second year they are two years old, whereas in the West, the person would be one years old. So its like...I suck at explaining so basically: current year-birth year+1=age in Korea, so 2013-1994+1=19. they just add one year to their age.

I really don't understand how the korean count their years -.- How come she turned 20 and she was born in 94 and I'll turn 22 and was born in 91. Wouldn't be 19 instead of 20?

Well, happy birthday maknae ^-^

Like I said they include the time we spend in our mothers' womb.
