About Seoul
South Korea remains in a fixed time zone, simplifying schedules throughout the year. Seoul blends high-tech infrastructure with historic palace complexes. Business interactions with Korean partners are most effective during the early morning hours to align with their local office schedule.
There is no summer time in Seoul; when Sweden changes its clocks, the difference changes by one hour.
