About the time in Kangnyŏng
Clocks in Kangnyŏng stay put all year. There is no summer-time switch to remember, so UTC +9 is what you will get in January and in July alike — useful if you book recurring calls with people in North Korea.
Kangnyŏng runs on Asia/Pyongyang, which puts the city UTC +9 from Coordinated Universal Time right now. The clock at the top of this page is not copied from your device: it is anchored to our reference timestamp and re-rendered every second against the IANA time zone database, so it stays right even when a laptop or phone has quietly drifted.
Kangnyŏng sits at latitude 37.91, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 27m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
