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 Peru Time (PET)
Peru Time (PET, IANA: America/Lima) is the official civil time of the Republic of Peru, set at UTC-5:00 year-round. Peru abolished Daylight Saving Time long ago — a brief DST experiment in 1994 was discontinued — so PET is observed without seasonal change. PET serves approximately 34 million people across Peru's 24 departments + Constitutional Province of Callao. Major cities: Lima (10M metro — capital and the third-largest South American metro after São Paulo and Buenos Aires), Arequipa (1.1M), Trujillo (1M), Chiclayo (800K), Piura (500K), Iquitos (470K — gateway to Peruvian Amazon), Cusco (430K — gateway to Machu Picchu). PET is identical in offset to Eastern Standard Time (EST) US, Cuban Standard Time (CST-Cu), Colombia Time (COT), and Ecuador Time (ECT) — easing North-to-South-American cross-time-zone coordination during US winter months. Affects: Bolsa de Valores de Lima (BVL) trading hours, Machu Picchu Inca Trail permit time-stamps, Cuzco-Aguas Calientes PeruRail train scheduling, and Inca Sun Festival Inti Raymi June 24 celebrations.
