Location and schedule context
- South Africa uses the Africa/Johannesburg IANA timezone; any approved KST operating slots will be converted for the current date rather than with a stored offset.
- Applicants should select their actual country and IANA timezone and provide recurring availability so the team can review the information individually.
- Country-specific eligibility, immediate class availability, compensation, and payout terms must be confirmed during the approved recruitment process rather than inferred from location.
Korea and local schedule
Most lessons start between 14:00 and 24:00 KST on weekdays, with an additional morning band from 07:00 to 11:00 KST.
Calculating the current local times…
Times use today’s calendar date in Korea and current IANA timezone data.
