North Korea is to establish its own time zone tocelebrate its liberation from Japanese rule 70 yearsago, state media said on Friday.

朝鲜官方媒体周五表示，为庆祝摆脱日本统治70周年，朝鲜将设立自己的时区。

The change will reverse Japan’s intervention in 1912, two years after annexing Korea, when itmoved the colony’s clocks forward by 30 minutes to bring it in line with Tokyo time.

此举与1912年日本对朝鲜标准时间的干预刚好相反。1912年，吞并朝鲜半岛已两年的日本，将它这块殖民地的标准时间拨快30分钟，以与东京时间一致。

It said the country would revert to “Pyongyang time on August 15. North Korea celebratesthis as the day in 1945 when its first leader Kim Il Sung completed his conquest of the Japaneseoccupiers — although the consensus among foreign historians is that he was brought to NorthKorea by occupying Soviet forces more than a month later.

The time zone change follows North Korea’s adoption in 1997 of the “Juche calendar — namedafter Kim Il Sung’s signature ideology — which numbers years according to a system thatbegins with Kim’s birth in 1912.

1997年，朝鲜开始采用“主体纪年，以金日成出生的1912年为“主体元年。去年5月朝鲜与日本关系的试探性改善如今已陷入停滞。
