what's the legal age to drink in south korea?
19
in ancient chinese texts, korea is referred to as "rivers and mountains embroidered on silk" (, ) and "eastern nation of decorum" (, ). individuals are regarded as one year old when they are born, as koreans reckon the pregnancy period as one year of life for infants, and age increments increase on new year's day rather than on the anniversary of birthdays. thus, one born immediately before new year's day may only be a few days old in western reckoning, but two years old in korea. accordingly, a korean person's stated age (at least among fellow koreans) will be one or two years more than their age according to western reckoning. however, western reckoning is sometimes applied with regard to the concept of legal age; for example, the legal age for purchasing alcohol or cigarettes in the republic of korea is 19, which is measured according to western reckoning.
