1969 — Rooster

己酉 · 기유

People born in 1969 are Giyunyeon, which means Golden Rooster. Heavenly Stem Yin Earth corresponds to Five Elements and Earth, so it is called a golden chicken.

As of 2026, those born in 1969 will be 57 years old if their birthday has passed, or 58 years old.

People born in the year of the Rooster are like this. Diligent, meticulous and have a strong sense of responsibility. Honest and thorough self-management.

However, there is one thing to note. In Myungri, the standard for the Chinese Zodiac sign is not January 1st but Ipchun (立春, around February 4th every year) . So, people born in January 1969 and early February may actually be from the previous year, 1968, under the year of the Monkey. It is safe to check your exact zodiac sign by your date of birth.
