Korea Standard Time
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Korea Standard Time (KST, Korean: 한반도 표준시 (Hanbando pyojunsi). In South Korea: 대한민국 표준시 (Daehan minguk pyojunsi).) is the standard time zone in North and South Korea and is 9 hours ahead of UTC (UTC+9): i.e., when it is midnight (00:00) UTC, it is 9 am (09:00) Korea Standard Time. Korea does not currently observe daylight saving time but has experimented with it in the past.[1][2] Korea Standard Time is the same as Japan Standard Time, Indonesian Eastern Standard Time and Yakutsk Time.
