A 7h time gap separates Seoul (UTC+9) and Stockholm (UTC+2). When you pick up your morning coffee in Stockholm, your counterpart in Seoul is already deep into their afternoon. Getting a meeting right means understanding exactly where those working days intersect.
With 1h of shared business hours, there's enough room for one focused daily meeting. The discipline is keeping it exactly that: focused. 7h gaps don't forgive meeting sprawl — a 30-minute standup that runs to 45 minutes starts eating into someone's actual work time. Book it, timebox it, end it on schedule.
The less obvious scheduling risk is daylight saving time mismatch. Seoul and Stockholm may not shift their clocks on the same date. A meeting booked as "10 AM SEL" in January might show up as "11 AM SEL" in a colleague's calendar in March if your calendar app doesn't handle DST transitions correctly. Check the DST note on this page before setting up recurring meetings.
Add the rest of your team above and the planner scales to everyone at once. A three-city team spanning Seoul, Stockholm, and a third timezone often has less overlap than any two-city pair in isolation — surfacing that constraint early prevents scheduling that works on paper but burns people out in practice.
Seoul is UTC+9 and Stockholm is UTC+2, a difference of 7h. This gap may shift by 1 hour during DST transitions.
The best meeting time is during the 1h of shared business hours — typically 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM GMT+9.
Yes, partially. Stockholm observes daylight saving time; Seoul does not. Stockholm's clocks change around March 29 and October 25, shifting the gap between the two cities by 1 hour for part of the year.
Seoul and Stockholm share 1h of business-hours overlap (assuming 9 AM–5 PM local time for both).
