19세 vs 19살
보통 나이를 얘기할때 "살"을 쓰는 것만 자주 보는데 연예인 정보같은 거 인터넷에서 볼 때 나이에서 "세"를 쓰더니 둘의 차이가 궁금합니다. 질문 봐주셔서 감사합니다. (세부사항에 나온 틀림도 좀 고쳐주세요~)

Question

Answer

나이 많으신 분들한테는 세 를 쓰고 나이 적은 사람들 한테는 살 을써요.
 존대말의 일종이에요^^

Answer

The difference is actually much more than that. As you know, in Korea they have their own way of counting age that makes people a year or two older depending on their date of birth and the time of the year. They use 살 for this one.

Now when it comes to legal age, the one that we are used to using everywhere else in the world, they use 세. So when it comes to laws, they use 세. the drinking age is 19세, 19 international age. 19살 could include 17 or 18 year olds in international age, 세 age.
