Best times to propose
- 1. 4pm in Seoul · 9am in Stockholm — Right at the edge of someone's day
- 2. 5pm in Seoul · 10am in Stockholm — Right at the edge of someone's day
Avoid 12am Seoul time and 9am Seoul time — only the other city is at work.

With 2 shared working hours, Seoul and Stockholm can run standing meetings without anyone giving up an evening — as long as the slot sits inside that window on both sides of the next clock change.
Sending a booking link avoids the arithmetic entirely: each side picks a time in their own zone and both calendars get the correct local time, including after a daylight-saving change. See how LemCall handles cross-timezone bookings.
