Age Calculation Methods

Korean Age (Counting Age)

You are 1 year old at birth and gain 1 year on New Year's Day, regardless of your birthday. This is the traditional Korean age counting method.

Korean Age = Current Year - Birth Year + 1

International Age

You are 0 years old at birth and gain 1 year on each birthday. This is the standard age calculation method used worldwide.

International Age = Current Year - Birth Year (-1 if birthday hasn't passed this year)

Year Age

Simply the current year minus your birth year, regardless of your birthday. Often used for school grades or same-age groups.

Year Age = Current Year - Birth Year
