Time difference between Seoul and Stockholm
Stockholm is 7 hours behind Seoul
Seoul, South Korea is UTC+9 · Stockholm, Sweden is UTC+1 — on standard time
The gap is not the same all year
Every converter gives one number for this pair. That number is right for most of the year and wrong for part of it, because Seoul does not change its clocks and Stockholm goes forward on the last Sunday in March and back on the last Sunday in October.
| Seoul / Stockholm clocks | Difference | How long |
|---|---|---|
| standard / summer | 7 hours behind | about 30 weeks |
| standard / standard | 8 hours behind | about 22 weeks |
Seoul stays put all year while Stockholm moves, so the gap changes twice a year from Stockholm's side alone. A recurring meeting set in Seoul's calendar will drift by an hour without anyone touching it.
