Gist of the matter is that Garimto will be joining MYM as the first addition to their future SC2 team, as it currently only has a CS and DOTA team.
He has signed a contract lasting from April 2010 to July 2011, lasting 15 months.
GARIMTO says that since there arent any Korean SC2 teams yet, he decided to join MYM, from Denmark, to participate in SC2 competitions.
Terms of the contract are that in the 15 month period, he will be representing MYM in all SC2 games and MYM will pay for all of his expenses related to SC2 tournaments/etc.
Also says that MYM extended the offer to many ex-pros, and that GARIMTO is the first one to successfully sign a contract.

(As I don't actually read Korean, I got it off here: http://www.wfbrood.com/xingji/hanguoxingji/xingji_47819.html)
Edit- Garimto wrote about his feelings on joining the team on his blog here.

"I signed with one of Europe's biggest pro-game teams, MYM, as a Starcraft II progamer. They say they've found a huge sponsorship, but I don't know what it is yet, and I guess I wouldn't know it even if I heard. I can't reveal the details of the contract, but I'll just say it puts no pressure on me whatsoever.
"I might have to pick my race soon, so I'm thinking maybe I'll just go ahead with random, but if I was forced to pick it would have to be Protoss, which isn't a very good choice at all. When I get my uniform, maybe you'll be able to see me wear it at some tournaments.
"The contract started on April 1st, so it's kind of late to announce it, but MyM will have it up on their homepage today. I just wanted to tell my readers here first
. No one knows yet, so you'll probably hear it here first."It was by chance I came across this opportunity and signed this contract, so I'm still the only SC II progamer in Korea so far. When more good players are discovered, I'll probably play alongside them.
"In Korea, Daegi hyung (Aozora, former pro) is preparing his NEX team, so most Korean SCII players will probably go there.
"Well, I've become attached to an European team, but I don't think it will affect my life much. The best part of this contract is that they pay for all expenses involved in participating in international tournaments. In any case, I'll try hard not to disappoint them.
"Since it's a 15 month contract, I'm stuck with them for better or for worse till summer of next year. As long as this is happening, I hope I can learn more about European culture by travelling there for tournaments (for FREE!!!).
"Any complaints of 'isn't that washed up geezer tired of making comebacks now?' I'll accept with thanks as people giving me attention. Still, please don't rag on me too hard, and if you could keep the thought of "Maybe...?" in the corner of your heart, then it would really make me try my best ^___^ Have a nice day everyone!
