Korean Standard TimeAsia/SeoulNo DST
Public holiday: National Foundation Day
Seoul learned its work clock from trade, government, and whoever paid for the first telegraph. Today that clock is Asia/Seoul, UTC+9 in January. No DST. Morning overlap with California is thin; after 21:00 a ping is a hierarchy event, not a hello. The polite window around Gangnam / Yeouido is 09:00–18:00 local. Treat overtime glow as scenery, not consent. Seoul does not shift for daylight saving; the clock stays UTC+9 all year.
