3rd Naver Design Fellowship open to foreigners

Naver is offering a design fellowship which is open to foreigners. They posted the recruitment ad in both Korean and English.

Before you get excited, I goofed on this one and bookmarked it to post later, got busy, and forgot. The deadline was a couple of days ago. Sorry about that. I'll post it here anyway for future reference.
