STX has confirmed their representatives as ToSsGirL, July, Bogus, and Trap.
STX decided to send ToSsGirL and July upon request by China’s NEO TV. The two players, nicknamed “Goddess” and “God of War” respectively, are extremely popular in the Chinese scene with both fans and players.
Bogus and Trap are two of STX’s players in training. Manager Kim Eun Dong hopes that by sending them to this tournament, they will grow quickly.
The Chinese representatives will likely be the players who won the WCG and IEF qualifiers (?), so this invitational should present intense, exciting games.

Posted in another thread.
STX’s ToSsGirL says: Although this isn’t an annual tournament, just an exhibition match, this event can help spread the Korean gaming mindset, so it’s a great honor to participate. Although China has some very skilled players, I will work very hard to bring home a solid victory.

First time translating for TL, hope it's accurate (really worried about this), makes sense, etc. More KR -> CN -> EN goodness. I merged the wfbrood and plu articles, because each contained details the other omitted.
also, good to see July finally coming back-ish... he hasn't played in how long?
