Not really much to say from the two articles. The only thing that's relevant is that Aphrodite grabbed 1st place vs the new ST female player in the most recent MSI WSL.
So basically, MVP recruited Aphrodite who got 1st place and ST recruit Mun Sae Mi who grabbed 2nd place.

Also, according to the ST head coach, he feels that this new female player has what it takes to not only become the best female player but also become someone who can play on par with the male players.
And according to Choya, he wants to train Aphrodite to the point where he can send her our for Proleague for either Round 3 or Round 4.

MSI WSL Season 2 will take place on the 18th with Mun Sae Mi representing ST and Aphrodite representing MVP.

Would be great to see Aphrodite play in Proleague. Always felt that with more training she had the potential to get involved in teamleagues properly.

Does this new ST girl have a nickname or is she only known by her real name?

Liquipedia has her ID as "생명공학부" which google translates as biotechnology.
(or lifescience or ...)

I didn't realize it was her. I thought it was something new but she was added on LP a week ago

Well, we'll know if the new ST player is any good when we see her picture. The more good looking she is, the more likely it is that she's meant to be a PR tool.

Yeah, because everyone knows that handsome male progamers like Zest are bad and just PR tools am I right?

Always good when underrepresented communities get a chance to achieve. Hopefully, this'll give a bit of a boost to the female scene.

there seems to be a slightly mixed reaction here, but I think this new girl is kind of cute. hopefully we'll see her play sometime even if she isn't that good
