Seoul is 16 hours ahead of Seattle

Best overlap: 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Seattle is 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM in Seoul.

Both teams are at their desks between 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM in Seattle and 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM in Seoul. Seoul is 16 hours ahead of Seattle, leaving a tight 2-hour window. Book 4:00 PM in Seattle (8:00 AM in Seoul) early and you'll dodge the daily scramble. Just remember Seoul sits on the next day during this window, so double-check which calendar day you're booking.
