San Francisco is 16 hours behind Seoul

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

Book within 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM Seoul time (4:00 PM to 6:00 PM in San Francisco) and both teams will be at work. San Francisco is 16 hours behind Seoul, so common hours are scarce (about 2 hours). Lock the slot, keep it short, and follow up in writing. Remember San Francisco is a day apart — the previous day — so a late call for Seoul could be the following morning there. Seasonal note: San Francisco uses daylight saving and Seoul doesn't, so double-check the times in your own months — they can move by an hour.
