About Korea Standard Time (KST)
Korea Standard Time (KST, IANA: Asia/Seoul) is the civil time of both the Republic of Korea (South Korea) and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea — since May 2018 when North Korea reverted to KST from its briefly used Pyongyang Time UTC+8:30 of 2015-2018), set at UTC+9:00 year-round (no DST). South Korea observed Daylight Saving Time briefly in 1948-1951 and again 1987-1988 during the Seoul Olympics (to facilitate evening TV broadcasts to North America), but discontinued it both times. KST is identical in offset to Japan Standard Time (JST), Yakutsk Time, Western Indonesian Time WIT (eastern Indonesia), and Palau Time (PWT) — creating a 'business-friendly' Northeast Asia zone of synchronized financial centers (Seoul-Tokyo). KST serves the Korean Peninsula's approximately 78 million residents (South Korea 52M + North Korea 26M). Major KST cities: Seoul (9.7M city, 25.7M metro — South Korean capital and the world's 5th-largest metro), Busan (3.3M — South Korea's 2nd-largest city + main port), Incheon (3M — Seoul Capital Area, location of Incheon International Airport ICN), Daegu (2.4M), Daejeon (1.5M), Pyongyang (3.2M — North Korean capital), Hamhung (770K — North Korea), Nampo (980K — North Korea). Affects: KRX (Korea Exchange) trading hours, K-pop industry music-release timing, Samsung + LG + Hyundai global headquarters operations.
About Indochina Time (ICT)
Indochina Time (ICT, IANA: Asia/Bangkok, Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh) is the civil time of mainland Southeast Asia (excluding Myanmar + Indonesia), set at UTC+7:00 year-round (no DST). ICT serves approximately 250 million people across: Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Christmas Island (Australian territory in Indian Ocean), Java + Sumatra + western Indonesia (which uses Western Indonesian Time WIB = identical UTC+7 offset). ICT shares its offset with Krasnoyarsk Time (Russia, UTC+7) and Davis Antarctica research station. Major ICT cities: Bangkok Thailand (10.7M metro — Southeast Asia's largest tourist destination + ASEAN economic hub), Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam (10M city, 14M metro — formerly Saigon, Vietnam's largest city), Hanoi Vietnam (8M metro — capital), Jakarta Indonesia (10.5M city, 35M metro — uses WIB which is identical to ICT but a different zone-name), Phnom Penh Cambodia (2M), Vientiane Laos (820K). Affects: SET (Stock Exchange of Thailand) trading hours, HOSE + HNX (Vietnam stock exchanges) trading, Phnom Penh Securities Exchange (CSX) hours, Bangkok BTS Skytrain + MRT subway operating hours, and ASEAN diplomatic-meeting schedules.
