How Time Zone Conversion Works

Time zone conversion works by comparing the UTC offset of one location to another. Every city or region is measured relative to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which acts as the global reference point for civil time.

KST is 0 hours 30 minutes behind ACST (standard time).

Daylight Saving Time: ACST observes DST; KST does not. The offset between them shifts by 1 hour twice a year — in spring and autumn — when ACST changes its clocks.
