Well, I was listening to the stream, and Llewellys explicitly said a reason he wanted to recruit Dragon is to get contacts in the korean scene, to potentially recruit a top world korean player later on. He even trolled a bit saying he thought last autumn that Stephano may help with the contacts part, but as Stephano is "like he is" (dunno what it means exactly, not that fluent in korean for sure, and perhaps he didn't fit / feel very well in Korea), it kinda failed
So yes, Dragon will focus his play on the foreign scene, but the fact that he is korean played in the decision to recruit him too, so Millenium gets more exposure in Korea.

I thought Dragon said he would never compete after he got caught cheating? Is it just a marketing thing then?

Very interesting to note, did not know Remy said that
Maybe more Korean players will be featured in Millenium in the future as well ^O^
I was aware that Millenium wanted a Terran player We will see what happens! This is quite exciting~
oh and thank you for the siege tanks Millenium, they look very nice in my living room<3

If you have watched dragon's stream, you should know the potential and talent this kid has. I've seen him do the randomest builds, while stuffing 5 pieces of bread in his mouth, laughing and beating GM koreans. If he takes it 100 percent serious, people will definitely know and respect Dragon a ton more over the next few months. I've always felt like Dragon's self motivation is what has held him back, he has a hard time being serious for extended periods of time. Moving to France, living in a team house, should be all the motivation he ever needed and I expect to see a stud terran emerge for millenium shortly. Congrats to Millenium and Love Dragon

I don't think Millenium's really cares about their korean fan base , their sponsor are only french/european exept MSI
And the real reason was to get a good and popular terran player not a ticket to get more korean players ^^
Dragon could have been american / european or anything else I don't think it would have change something.

wait... I thought Dragon left SlayerS because he wanted to go back to working and just play SC2 for fun, why did he join another pro team?

SUSSESS This.
Also, Dragon is actually a fairly decent player, but also hilarious. I actually someone do his 7CC into re-aligning the SCVS and hiding the second CC strat against me in hopes I would leave the game. I just typed "I see you're a Dragon fan" and he responded with "lol" and left the game.

I honestly did not expect this, but thank you so much Millenium for picking up an awesome player.
Your fan numbers are sure to grow by at LEAST 10k people.

So glad Dragon found a team!! Dragon FIGHTING
