/jeo-sok-no-hwa/
저속노화, or Slow Aging, means slowing the pace of biological and functional aging through everyday habits like sleep, exercise, stress control, and low-glycemic eating. In Korean trend usage, it is less about looking young and more about staying healthy, independent, and less frail for longer.

Examples
2- "I used to live on iced lattes and bread, but now I’m doing 저속노화 with mixed-grain rice and walking after meals."
- "My feed is full of Slow Aging meals now—lentils, olive oil, vegetables, the whole package."

Origin · Source
The Korean phrase 저속노화 literally combines 저속, meaning low speed, and 노화, meaning aging. The medical idea of Slow Aging existed before, but the term became a mainstream Korean wellness keyword around 2024–2025 as doctors, media, YouTube, and social platforms popularized habits like low-glycemic meals, strength training, walking, and sleep routines. The exact first use is unclear, so 2024 is best treated as an approximate popularization year.
