North Korea will establish its own time zone next week by pulling back its current standard time by 30 minutes.Local time in North and South Korea and Japan is the same — nine hours ahead of GMT. It was set during Japan's rule over what was single Korea from 1910 to 1945.
The new time zone will take effect from Aug. 15 – the 70th anniversary of Korea’s liberation from Japanese rule at the end of World War II, North Korea’s official Central News Agency said on Friday.
