N. Korea Initiates Pyongyang Time

North Korea announced Friday it was moving its clocks backwards 30 minutes to create a new “Pyongyang Time,” breaking from a time standard imposed by “wicked” Japanese imperialists more than a century ago. The change will put the standard time in North Korea 30 minutes behind South Korea which, like Japan, is at GMT+9:00, France24 reported.
