About Anseong Time Zone
Anseong uses the Asia/Seoul IANA time zone, which is the standard time zone for all of South Korea. Its standard offset is UTC+9, also called Korea Standard Time (KST), meaning Anseong is nine hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time throughout the year.
South Korea does not currently observe daylight saving time, so Anseong stays on UTC+9 in every month, including summer and winter. That makes scheduling more predictable than in places such as New York or London, where offsets change seasonally; for example, Anseong remains 13 or 14 hours ahead of New York depending on whether the US is on daylight saving time.
Anseong is located in Gyeonggi Province, south of Seoul, and shares the same national time standard as nearby cities including Seoul, Suwon, Pyeongtaek, and Cheonan. Its closest major neighboring time zone relationship is with Japan Standard Time (UTC+9), so Anseong and Tokyo are on the same clock year-round, while China Standard Time (UTC+8) is one hour behind and Dubai (UTC+4) is five hours behind.
