Korea Standard Time
South Korea has one time zone, Korea Standard Time (UTC+09:00, UTC+9), which is abbreviated KST. South Korea currently does not observe daylight saving time. From May 8 to October 9 in 1988, daylight saving time was tested to better accommodate the calendar of competitions held during the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul.

It is likely that Koreans used water clocks to keep time prior to this invention, but no concrete records of them exist. In 1437, Jang Yeong-sil, with Jeong Cho, created a bowl-shaped sundial called the ''angbu ilgu'' (), which King Sejong had placed in public so anyone could use it. In 1908, the Korean Empire adopted a standard time, GMT+08:30. In 1912, during the Korea under Japanese rule, Japanese occupation of Korea, the Governor-General of Korea changed standard time to GMT+09:00 to align with Ja ...
