Busan: Busan, officially Busan Metropolitan City, is the second most populous city in South Korea, after Seoul; it has a population of over 3.3 million as of 2024. Alternatively romanized as Pusan, it is the economic, cultural and educational center of southeastern South Korea, with its port being South Korea's busiest and the sixth-busiest in the world. The surrounding "Southeastern Maritime Industrial Region" is South Korea's largest industrial area. The large volumes of port traffic and urban population in excess of 1 million makes Busan a Large-Port metropolis using the Southampton System of Port-City classification. As of 2025, Busan Port is the primary port in Korea and the world's sixth-largest container port.
South Korea has not observed DST in civil use since 1988. The local UTC offset (+09:00) is constant year-round.
Busan is listed in the dataset snapshot as 9 hours ahead of UTC (offset +09:00). 8 hours ahead of London, on the same clock as Tokyo.
Geographically at longitude 129.03°, Busan's mean solar noon falls about 24 minutes after civil 12:00 under the year-round civil offset — local sunrise and sunset run later on the clock than they would on true solar time.
Busan sits at 35.10°N in the northern hemisphere — daylight runs roughly 14 hours 22 minutes on the June solstice and about 9 hours 38 minutes on the December solstice.
