So I've had this one guy friend since forever. No breaks, just constant presence. During college entrance exam season I was doing 정시¹ while he already got into Yonsei early admission. I was waiting to hear back from my three schools and honestly I knew I was probably gonna bomb all of them.
It's the last day of Yonsei's supplementary admissions. Time's running out. No way they're calling. So I'm sitting there in front of my best friend and I literally BREAK. Like, first time crying that hard since elementary school. Full ugly crying. He's trying to comfort me, telling me it's fine, the call's coming, trying to make eye contact but I keep looking down and he's just wiping my tears while I'm still choking and sobbing and then.
Vibration.
His phone goes off first. He picks it up and goes 'yo, Yonsei's calling' and he puts the phone to my ear and I hear 'This is the Yonsei University admissions office' ㅠㅠ And it was a 02 number... When I hang up I'm SO happy but suddenly I'm MORTIFIED. Like my face is literally in my hands and this man looks at my index finger and goes 'Didn't I tell you the call was coming? Let's see you at the 고연전²' and he's CRYING laughing but like... the way he said it. I was so hyped ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
I couldn't even speak Korean back then but that moment? That was 연고전 energy, bestie.
