i dont really share a problem with someone else unless i know they have a solution to it, ya know? i can actually ask something of you. lee know will just try to make jokes to lighten up the mood and hes great for that, but its not the pick-me-up i want

...
...
...
Seungmin:
wait, hannie, do u have good extracurriculars?
Han:
uhhh i think so? school council, drama, that sorta stuff through middle and high school. I won a standup comedy once
Seungmin:
PERFECT
Han:
huh?
Seungmin:
ok so the scholarship i got is kinda a weird one
Seungmin:
its this organization thats tryna encourage endorsement, ya know, for good character and stuff
Seungmin:
so theoretically (if i read the clauses right), since i received a scholarship from them, i can recommend an applicant to them and theyll consider it
Seungmin:
obv you still need good grades and a good resume, but it seems like you do?
Han:
wait ur saying ud RECCAMEND ME??
Seungmin:
why not? ur family's financial status will put u as a priority too, so u might just get it
Han:
what does it cover???
Seungmin:
international studies, not all but a good buncha them, around 50%, plus dorming. if u wanna stay in korea, im sure ull get something good enough but if u wanna see your options, why not? the application and interviews in english and you gotta test for good proficiency, but that shouldnt be a problem for you
Han:
OMG SEUNGMIN UR ACTUALLY COOKING RN
Seungmin:
so, should i do it? im not sure of the entire process yet but fill out the application, the deadline is in a few weeks. give ur details and everything where it tells you to. ill contact the organization for you
Han:

Seungmin:
