Short answer
These pages explain how each of the ten Korean birthday types tends to behave as an ex, in a situationship, when ghosting, in its red flags and with a crush, plus what to do about it. They describe patterns for self-reflection, not predictions about any one person.
Don't know their type?

The ten types in one table
| Birthday type | Saju name | Element | In one line |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Tall Pine | Gap Wood 甲 | Yang Wood | Loyal, proud and steady. Protects first, talks later, and would rather fix your problem than say how they feel. |
| The Climbing Flower | Eul Wood 乙 | Yin Wood | Sweet, adaptable and quietly unstoppable. Bends to fit, remembers everything, and finds a way around every wall. |
| The Sun | Byeong Fire 丙 | Yang Fire | Warm, loud and generous. Loves big and fast, hates being ignored, and lights up every room including the group chat. |
| The Candle | Jeong Fire 丁 | Yin Fire | Quiet, deep and intensely loyal. Falls rarely and completely, reads meaning into everything, and remembers how you made them feel. |
| The Mountain | Mu Earth 戊 | Yang Earth | Calm, solid and protective. Slow to start, very hard to move, and shows love by quietly taking care of things. |
| The Garden Field | Gi Earth 己 | Yin Earth | Nurturing, practical and quietly brilliant. Notices everything, feeds everyone, and overthinks one text for forty minutes. |
| The Sword | Gyeong Metal 庚 | Yang Metal | Blunt, loyal and protective. Says the hard thing out loud, forgives slowly, and shows love by fixing your problems. |
| The Jewel | Sin Metal 辛 | Yin Metal | Elegant, sensitive and hard to forget. Wants to be chosen clearly and out loud, and goes politely cold when hurt. |
| The Ocean | Im Water 壬 | Yang Water | Free, curious and magnetic. Falls fast, dives deep, then needs air. Hates labels that feel like paperwork. |
| The Rain | Gye Water 癸 | Yin Water | Intuitive, gentle and quietly perceptive. Senses what is wrong before anyone says it, and analyses text tone like a contract. |
