General Discussion Cobanat-1459 March 25, 2018, 5:37am 1 I know her bio says 19, but in Korea, age works different. To my knowledge, when they are born, they are already 1. Also, I may be wrong but in New Years they gain an age as well. So is her bio stating how old she is in Korea which would be about 18 or 17, or does it mean that she’s lived 19 full years? Vitruvian-11906 March 25, 2018, 5:39am 2 I hardly think context matters.1 Like Cobanat-1459 March 25, 2018, 5:41am 3 she is a war hero who rides a mech that can explode. Also if she is younger than 18, then people need to cool down with the fan art9 Likes Haitham-21231 March 25, 2018, 5:44am 4

If her age is on the clock…9 Likes tae-12117 March 25, 2018, 6:05am 5 Since all the other characters have their ages represented in the western system, it wouldn’t make much sense for them to use her korean age. I’m pretty sure she’s really 19.3 Likes AMERICAN-11395 March 25, 2018, 6:18am 6

you must not internet much9 Likes Cobanat-1459 March 25, 2018, 3:58pm 7 Blizzard has been careful with their cultural representation on their maps and characters. Not much on the lore though, that just seems to be inconsistent. Like they don’t know themselves what the lore is at this point.

So… Koreans are aging twice as fast as the rest of the world? OhSnap-1214 March 25, 2018, 4:01pm 11

Is that why when they say they’re 50, they really look 25? lol2 Likes Mirrorkat-11737 March 25, 2018, 4:04pm 12 If her age is on the clock she’s to young for you bro1 Like Haitham-21231 March 25, 2018, 4:04pm 13

You don’t see the names of the heroes being written in their native language, do you?2 Likes Gormandc-1176 March 25, 2018, 4:05pm 15 her age was 19 at launch it’s been near 2 years so she likely had 1-2 birthdays since then. SunsetHippo-1757 March 25, 2018, 4:07pm 16 I wouldn’t say she is a war hero… Cobanat-1459 March 25, 2018, 4:17pm 17 They are all still the same age as they were in launch. Orisa is still considered to be 1 month old lorewise and she’s been out for a year1 Like Gormandc-1176 March 25, 2018, 4:19pm 18 she gave up being a pro (starcraft was it?) gamer to fight in the south korean military, using her expertise to pilot a mech, so pretty similar to zarya, not sure if that constitutes a war hero, but i’d say pretty dang close.1 Like SunsetHippo-1757 March 25, 2018, 4:27pm 19 Um every Korean citizen is required by law to serve in the military1 Like Karahtar-1516 March 25, 2018, 4:28pm 20 Not old enough… (20 characters)next page →
