When to schedule
Standard business hours (9 AM–5 PM, Mon–Fri) in Newfoundland Time and Korea Standard Time don't overlap on the same weekday. Korea Standard Time is 12 hours ahead of Newfoundland Time.
With some flexibility, there’s a workable window outside standard hours:
- 7 AM–9 AM in Newfoundland Time (6 PM–8 PM in Korea Standard Time) — suggest 8:00 AM Newfoundland Time (7:30 PM Korea Standard Time).
This means an early start or late finish for one side, but it’s a reasonable slot for a one-off meeting.
This window may shift by an hour during daylight saving time.
Public holidays in 2026
National public holidays can affect availability — a counterpart is likely off work on their own holidays, so it's worth planning meetings and deadlines around them.
