Convert last hour to show 24:00 instead of 00:00

Beginner user here. I'm trying to create an hour ending column using the following, but I can't seem to figure out how to get the last hour to show 24:00 instead of 00:00. Any suggestions?

TIME_HE = time_hr[TIME_HR] + 1/24

So you want the first entry in the "TIME_HR" column to read "24:00" as well? What's your locale?

No, I want the first entry to remain 0:00 for TIME_HR and 1:00 for TIME_HE. I do understand the potential limitations with this request, but I'm used to a different software where this concept is supported.

I have yet to meet a person who would understand what 24:00 means. You risk confusing your users.

We have an established product and user group that are familiar with the hour ending 24:00 concept, I was hoping we could replicate something similar with PowerBI.

Only with custom string based measures. Nothing out of the box.
