In South Korea they have what is known as "Korean Age".

This states that when you are born you are 1 year old and every January 1st you age a year. So if you are born on December 31st you are aged 1 and then on January 1st you become 2.

This system is used to define when you are eligible for mandatory military service so it has important implications.

A South Korean MP is currently trying to get the law changed so that the International system (like we use) is used in future.
