    Lol, it's actually very simple,

    Your birthday doesn't matter to be aged in Korea, Everyone get older at the same time by New Years (Jan 1st)

    and when you are born, You are one year old already and you will be two by Jan 1st of next year even though you born in Dec 31st.

    So If there is someone born in Jan 01 2015 and another born in Dec 31 2015, they are both 3 years old, no matter when they born.


    But for something related to legal such as vote, drinking, driving, we count the age like other countries and use international age.

    so it is complicated for the legal matter and it is controversial if we have to change the system.

    You got right, 혹시나 means just in case, so 혹시나 해서 물었어 (not 묻었어- 묻었어 means 'bury') means that I asked you just in case.

    Hey, you did good job! The sentence sounds perfect and you don't really need to put "and" there. but if you want to make it perfect, you can put "그리고". For the conversation between friends, we are not using "게다가" that much, and I'm not sure you use "알겠지요?" on purpose because that is the only formal expression you used in this sentence. If you wrote it to friend, it should be 알겠지? instead of 알겠지요?

    I'm not sure what you are asking, it will help if you clarify little bit Just for the example, both have the same meanings between 엄마 보고싶다 and 엄마 보고싶어(without question mark) but 보고싶어 can be asking the question with question mark together and 보고싶다 can't be the question. both expressions are informal expression to use between friends or people younger than you.

    To make it natural, you don't need to pronounce separately and make sounds connected. 펜이 [Peni]

    오늘은 학교 첫째 날이에요 하지만 저는 내일부터 갈거에요 today is the first day of school but I will go there from tmr. I don't think it's natural to use past tense with 'today' so i changed little bit and it is not necessary to use 'start' going so i got rid of 'start'.

    Hi Christa,

    Christmas in Korea will be totally different from North America. Unless he/she is Christian(they go to church obviously), it's more likely couple or friends based holiday in Korea. I guess it will make a huge difference since Christmas is a big family holiday to get together in North America. We have other family holidays such as New year, Lunar new year and Chuseok(for autumn), but Christmas.

    But for the couple, Christmas is important like Valentine's day and sometimes we have party between friends. In States, most of stores are closed for Christmas but oppositely Stores will open late and you might need to make a reservation for popular restaurants. Everything will be expensive on the day of Christmas and Christmas Eve, especially restaurants and hotels.

    Hope you have great Christmas in Korea,

    알겠어/알았어 are for friends or younger person

    알겠어요/ 알았어요 are the formal expressions.

    알겠습니다/알았습니다 are the very formal expressions.
