How prayer times are calculated in South Korea

Pages for South Korea use the Muslim World League method: Fajr when the sun is 18° below the horizon and Isha when the sun is 17° below the horizon. Times are shown in local time (UTC+9). In the capital Seoul, Fajr is around 3:16 AM and Maghrib 7:57 PM around 21 June, while around 21 December Fajr comes at 6:09 AM and Maghrib at 5:17 PM. Daylight there ranges from 9 h 34 min to 14 h 46 min.

Our cities in South Korea stretch from Sinan in the west to Pohang in the east, and from Kosong in the north to Seogwipo in the south. Because of this spread, the sun reaches its zenith in Pohang about 13 minutes before Sinan, even though the clock is the same everywhere. Day length also differs between north and south, most of all in summer and winter, so the timetable of Seoul is no substitute for that of your own city.

Ramadan in South Korea

During Ramadan 1448 AH (expected on 8 February 2027), the fast in Seoul lasts roughly 12 h 02 min at the start of the month and 13 h 07 min at the end, with imsak at 5:51 AM and iftar at 6:03 PM on the first day. Times differ from one city to another, so open your city’s page for the exact imsak and iftar times.

To reach your city quickly, type its name in the search box at the top of the page, or go through the regions above. On every page you will find today’s times with a countdown, a monthly timetable you can print and links to nearby cities.
