They’re known as The International Flat. Eight internationals. One terrifyingly brilliant law student. Rumour says if something happens on campus, they know before the Dean does. No one’s sure how. They just… do. People swear they’ve seen different members in completely unrelated spaces at the same time. It’s become a joke that they’re running a soft intelligence network. Bang Chan Faculty View: The Responsible One. Music and student leaders see him as dependable. Admin trusts him. Rumour: If you need something approved, talk to Chan. He “knows people.” Lee Know Faculty View: Intimidatingly competent. Dance and performance circles think he’s untouchable. Rumour: He doesn’t talk much, but when he does, things shift. Changbin Faculty View: Loud but influential. Athletics and culture societies adore him. Rumour: He can rally 50 people in ten minutes. Hyunjin Faculty View: Artistic elite.

Bang Chan Sees her as quietly formidable. He clocked fast that she reads people the way he reads soundwaves — instinct first, logic second. He worries she carries too much alone. Knows the neutral accent is armour. Respects it, but hopes she’ll drop it at 2am in the kitchen. Lee Know Knows she notices everything. Finds it mildly unsettling, deeply impressive. He appreciates that she never weaponises what she sees. Thinks her restraint is strength. Suspects she edits herself more than she should. Changbin Is openly in awe. Brags about her pass rate like it’s his own. Loves that she can dismantle an argument without raising her voice. Sometimes wants to shake her — “You’re allowed to be angry, you know?” — because she forgives too fast. Hyunjin Sees the poetry in her precision. He notices the micro-pauses before she answers, the way she shifts accents like changing lenses. Thinks she’s loneliest when she’s most impressive. Watches her the way one studies art. Han Pretends she intimidates him. Secretly feels safest around her. She catches his spirals before they peak, redirects him gently. He knows she understands visas and human rights in theory — and in ways that feel personal. Felix Admires her softness most. Thinks it’s wild that someone that sharp still chooses kindness. He can tell when she’s blending instead of being. Always nudges her back into herself without calling it out. Seungmin Respects her discipline. Understands what it costs to survive elite spaces that weren’t built for you. He notices the way professors shift around her — careful, threatened. Thinks she’ll outrun them all. I.N Thinks she’s unreal. Like she stepped out of a legal drama but actually nicer. He brags that he lives with her. Doesn’t fully grasp how much pressure she’s under — just knows she looks tired when no one’s watching. Overall They see her power. Only some of them see the erasure.
