"Life Science" is 生命科學 in hanja, or 생명 과학 in hangeul.
"Engineering" is 工學 in hanja, or 공학 in hangeul.

Combined you get 生命工學, or 생명공학, i.e. biotechnology.
Translating it simply as "Life Sciences" misses the engineering part.

Her name has another character though: 生命工學部, or 생명공학부...

meaning she is "The Faculty of Biotechnology", or "The Department of Biological Engineering"

I think that makes it stranger... and vaguely menacing? A better name than Lifesciences, in my opinion.

You could probably turn that into ST.Laboratory. That's a pretty cool name, IMO.

That's an intersting name and all but if she doesn't perform in tournies I can't spam it in threads. I hope to see good results!

Dang I first thought it was Dragon doing a ladyboy impression.

Anyway, it's a good omen that teams judge worthwhile to recruit female players again.

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?


I'm talking about probabilities here, not mathematical certainties. Consciously picking one of the better looking male progamers isn't a good counter-argument.

If they can win one game in proleague, that will validate there place on the team
If all men were created equal there would be no reason to declare it.

I'd love to see some female players in PL for the right reasons - because of their skill!

BioTech would be a really cool handle. Especially if she played Terran. People would be expecting her to go Marine Tank every matchup.
