Japanese TV clock 2016/5/23 12:47
I don't know if it's my TV box (i don't live in Japan), but why does the afternoon (12:30pm) is listed as 0:30 on the news? is this correct?

Both 0:30pm and 12:30pm are commonly used in Japan, and considered correct.

I don't know what you mean by "TV box" but if you're watching TV and it says 0:30 on the screen, you obviously know if it's am or pm.

By the way, when TV shows air old footage, they blur out the time indication to avoid confusion.
