Exactly the same as NDF versus DF. Both read 1 hour in timecode value, but NDF AND 23.98 are longer in actual running time, because numbers aren't drop to adjust for slow video time.

In reality, true 24fps (not 23.98) WOULD correspond to actual time. An hour of TC in TRUE 24fps would be accurate because the video is running faster.
