Translation for those who feel like reading it (there's basically nothing you don't already know but whatever):

Azubu Korea (CEO Jin Han-cheol) has signed 4 new players to their StarCraft II team 'TEAM AZUBU SC2' (hereafter Azubu).

The 4 players who have newly joined the team are GanZi (Terran), BBoong (Zerg), SuperNova (Terran) and Symbol (Zerg); combined with the existing players such as viOLet (Zerg), Genius (Protoss) and TOP (Terran), a total of 12 players will ply their trade under the Azubu banner.

From this set of signings Azubu has balanced the team's racial composition which was previously skewed in favour of Protoss, as well as signing an older and experienced player in GanZi to add some much needed backbone to the team which could have appeared lacking due to the prevalence of younger players on the roster.

Azubu's coach Iris stated his expectation that "I believe GanZi will act as the oldest brother in the team", and Azubu's manager NaDa stated "BBoong and Symbol will act as the pillars of the team's Zerg roster".

The head coach IntoTheRain has expressed his expectation regarding the former Code S leaguer SuperNova by making the witty statement that "Although he has missed out on the NesTea Award, if he re-enters Code S then the IntoTheRain Award awaits him".

After the team's official formation on January 9, Azubu begins its main activities through the 2013 GSL and 2013 GSTL.

Where do they get this money? Hope they dont choke like other "esport sponsors" out there so they could provide a stable job for these players!

I wonder what Azubu's plans are. Like, long term business plans and such like that. With the lineup they have right now, they can go anywhere and do anything, if they have the money and the desire.

Azubu already runs the two most popular LoL Korean teams and sponsored one of the OGN Champions tournaments. Azubu is shady as fuck, but they are shady as fuck with cash.

Wow huge pickups. GSTL is going to be interesting now with Azubu becoming a pretty scary team.

Nice to add some more meat to their roster, I still dont think Azubu (unless Symbol goes off like he did that one GSTL) will be able to compete with the top teams in GSTL

Idk, aside from maybe IM most of the gstl teams are looking really weak, I mean startale lost two of their best and life is bad in team leagues, and fxo isn't looking too hot either. Still, best of luck to the new azabu team

I don't understand Azubu. It looks like they have a lot of money to spend, and they're getting into the Korean SC2 scene in a big way, but they're investing most of their money into players who are past their prime.

Symbol - great pick up for sure. But TOP? Inca? Supernova? Ganzi? Surely there must be better players out there?

They already have connections to Kespa, so it would be cool to see them as the first team to participate in GSTL and SPL at the same time. I think its a possibility but would be really hard for them to balance. Imagine them winning both though : X
