I am 30!!!

Koreans celebrate their birthdays at the New Year. Since babies here are considered a year old at birth, that makes any Westerner a year older when they arrive here. My birthday is in March, yet it's not as important in Korea. Nevertheless, the birthdays are still celebrated. If I am in the West in 2010 I can turn 30 twice.
