People born in the year of the Tiger are like this. Courageous, driven, and capable of leadership. Not afraid of challenges.
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 1986 and early February may actually be from the previous year, 1985, under the Year of the Ox. It is safe to check your exact zodiac sign by your date of birth.
