It is a widely held believe in Korea. Implying that foreigners are spreading it for no reason seems ignorant at best, disingenuous at worst.
Although afaik there is no clear evidence and the exact reason is unknown.
They count the time you are in the womb as one year. So you’re already one year old when you are born.
On the one hand this really does make stuff easier for everyone involved. On the other hand this again removes a piece of human culture from the face of the earth.
Couldn’t find any info on this. Curious too
Violating a country’s airspace seems to be unnecessarily provoking.
Not sure what the best way to handle North Korea is but this does seem like a questionable decision.
