About the time in Sŏmun-dong
The zone identifier Asia/Pyongyang is the value you want in code, calendars and travel systems. Abbreviations change with the season, but Asia/Pyongyang keeps pointing at Pyongyang time whatever the date, which is why every timestamp on this page is built from it.
Sŏmun-dong sits at latitude 40.17, in the mid-latitude band, so day length here swings noticeably between midwinter and midsummer — today's 13h 29m is one point on that curve, not a fixed value.
Sunrise today lands at 05:53 and sunset at 07:22 local time, giving 13h 29m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (40.17, 126.27) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Sŏmun-dong.
