Korea Standard Time (KST) is 14 hours ahead of Eastern Standard Time (EST). To convert EST to KST, you need to add 14 hours to the EST time. For example, if it is noon EST, it will be 2:00 AM in KST (the next day).
You can use the time zone converter on websites like SavvyTime or WorldTimeServer. These tools allow you to input any EST time and instantly receive the corresponding KST time, making the conversion process quick and efficient.
Yes, daylight saving time affects this conversion. EST is used during standard time, while Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) is observed during summer. When converting from EDT to KST, you would add 13 hours instead of 14.
To manually convert EST to KST, take your EST time and add 14 hours. For instance:
If it’s 8:00 AM EST, adding 14 hours gives you 10:00 PM in KST.
This method can be applied at any hour of the day.
When planning meetings between participants in EST and KST, be mindful of the 14-hour difference (or 13 hours when EDT is observed). It’s advisable to schedule meetings during overlapping business hours; for example, if it’s convenient for participants in EST from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, this translates to 11:00 PM to 7:00 AM in KST (the next day). This ensures that all parties can attend without conflicts.
