About the time in Sŏnjuk-tong
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.
Sŏnjuk-tong 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.
Sunrise today lands at 05:55 and sunset at 07:18 local time, giving 13h 23m of daylight. Those figures come from the city's own coordinates (37.98, 126.56) rather than a country-wide average, so they match what you would actually see from a window in Sŏnjuk-tong.
