K Culture Wire · birth years
205 Korean actors, singers and songwriters in our roster were born in 1998. They turn 28 this year. Ordered by how many people opened their English Wikipedia article in the last 30 days, so the name you are most likely to know is first.
41 more people born in 1998 are counted but not listed — Wikidata holds no English name for them, only a Korean one, and this is an English-language site. They are inside the 205 total.

A birth year is a birth year. Nothing here says people born in 1998 are better or luckier. A busy year means more people were born and recorded, not that the year was special. We tested whether birth year predicts reaching a chart, and it does not — that test is here.
