But when asked their age in informal settings, most South Koreans will answer with their “Korean age,” which could be one or even two years older than their international age. Born on December 31, 1977, he is considered 45 by international age; 46 by calendar year age; and 47 by Korean age. Under this law, people are allowed to buy alcohol starting in the year they turn 19 (in international age). Many residents are likely to continue using the traditional Korean age system in day-to-day life and social scenarios, as is common.

South Korea’s former President Moon Jae In said on Monday he plans to give up a pair of dogs sent by North Korean leader Kim Jong Un as a gift following their 2018 summit, citing a lack of support from his successor. Moon has raised the white Pungsan dogs named “Gomi” and “Songgang” since their arrival in the South and took them to his personal residence after his term ended in May. But that effort fell apart due to “unexplained opposition” from the administration of incumbent President Yoon Suk Yeol, Moon’s office said. “The presidential office seems to be negative toward entrusting the management of the Pungsan dogs to former President Moon,” Moon’s office said on Facebook. The interior ministry, which oversees the presidential archives, did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

The dogs are legally categorised as state property belonging to the presidential archives, but Moon's office said he was entrusted as their caretaker under consultations with the archives and the interior ministry, an unprecedented decision. But that effort fell apart due to "unexplained opposition" from the administration of incumbent President Yoon Suk-yeol, Moon's office said. "The presidential office seems to be negative toward entrusting the management of the Pungsan dogs to former President Moon," Moon's office said on Facebook.
