Jiyeon celebrates her 19th (or 20th in Korean) birthday today. A party was held for Jiyeon and also Hyomin who had her birthday last week. Happy birthday!!!
Happy b-lated Birthday to both of them!!
P.S. How can Jiyeon be 20 in Korean if she is 19?
In Korea and traditional China a baby is one year old when born, so they’ll always be a year older than the standard most other non-Korean people use.
I am not sure which age they use in official documents but on variety shows etc the Korean stars do refer themselves mostly according to Korean age.
Kind of like in that clip on Youtube of the TV show SBS Heroes and Jiyeon is pretending to be an 8 yr old but says she is 7 and then quickly adds in Nominal years she is 8.
