Scientists are cat3moviepredicting that we'll live longer.
Life expectancy is projected to exceed 90 years for the first time, according to a study in the U.K. medical journal, The Lancet.
South Korea in particular tops the globe with the largest increase in life expectancy across both men and women.

Men will be expected to average 84 years in the future as well, an increase of 7 years over 2010 babies.
Other countries expected to enjoy significant boosts to their longevity include Australia, France, Japan and Spain.
The forecasted increase echoes the dramatic improvement in life expectancy from the 1960s till today -- when the average increased by 19 years between 1960 and 2014, the study notes.

Fewer women smoke in South Korea than in most Western countries, and South Koreans have lower body-mass indexes, the authors added.

Notably, the study's authors highlighted the United States' high child and maternal mortality rates.
"Not only does the U.S. have high and rising health inequalities, but also life expectancy has stagnated or even declined in some population subgroups," the study says. "The poor recent and projected U.S. performance is at least partly due to high and inequitable mortality from chronic diseases and violence, and insufficient and inequitable health care."
