hello, how are you. this was one of the best time tutorial. thanks. can you please tell me or make a video about korean age system. i saw news and it said in korea everyone is going to be 2 years younger. i don't understand. how Korean age differs from international age by 2 years. even if we consider the time we spend in mother's womb, its only 9 months.
Hi! Thank you so much for your words! In Korea, you are already one year old when you are born. The prenatal period is counted to a year and added as a year of life. Also, you "age" a year every New Year. Whether your birthday has passed or not, in Korea you add a year every January 1st. Recently, the Korean government is changing the Korean age system to international standards. Then, Koreans will be two years younger than their current age. I'll make a video of this part later!
@@LearnKoreanwithLeeSaem first of all thank you for being an unique RUclipsr that takes time to read the viewers comment and reply. second, i m still confused. so a person is one year old as soon as he is born. and he ages on every new year. so that should make the age older by one year. why is everyone saying 2 years. on the Korean passport what age is written? international or korean. i really think you should make a video about it explaining in depth. i still don't understand why 20 age in international is 22 in korea not 20. you can also share your opinion about the age system in korea and rest of the world and also tell us about your take on if korea should change it or keep it. thanks
@@dom_toredo I always appreciate your kind comments. 😊 Korea's age system is a bit unique. I'll make sure to make a video about this. And only the date of birth is marked on the passport in Korea. Age is not indicated. 😊
Hi, I'm trying to learn Korean as I practice and teach Taekwondo, in our booklets we have the Romanised pronunciation of the words (for example sogi, or seogi), however I've been learning Korean letters and how to spell these words. But I just wanted to ask if you know or maybe you don't and that's ok, but do you know if 서기 means 'stance' or has any relation to foot position, because no matter how much I search on google I can't find it anywhere meaning stance and wondered if someone had accidentally translated it wrong and no one has caught on because no one (that I know of) can speak Korean in our Taekwondo club. Google translate says it means clerk but I don't know if it has many other translations too I know this was a random question, not related to anything about the video but it was your most recent video so I thought there would be a higher chance of you seeing it if I commented here Many thanks :)
Hi Declan, It's really cool to teach Taekwondo. 서기 means secretary, clerk, and A.D. (Anno Domini) in Korean. It has many meanings. 서기 used in Taekwondo means standing. The word 서기 used in Taekwondo means standing position or standing stance. 서기 is the basic movement of Taekwondo and has various shapes. I didn't learn Taekwondo, but I hope this answer is helpful. 😊
