There actually is a sponsor.
![[image loading]](http://file.thisisgame.com/board/files/0/img/20110628103907_6ae00889.jpg)
u can hear a soda pouring sound right before announcing player's name.
i was looking through my twitter earlier today and noticed conversation between Dr. Chae and reporter of Thisisgame.
+ Show Spoiler +Altair1973[Castor~★]심현 이번 GSL 스폰은 펩시군요. 어제 코드A 개막했는데 스폰서가 없나 걱정했더니...어제 경기 시작 직전 탄산음료 따는 소리와 물방울 CG는 펩시 힌트였군요... http://bit.ly/iiF9GFWoWnStarcraftJungwon Chae @ @Altair1973 헤헤 걸렸나요
currently Gomtv is too busy posting up the sponsor, but i am sure they will put it up by the time of Finals. Congrats to Gretech for getting an awesome mainstream sponsor!!
bottom is a link to korean Starcraft 2 community site regarding the GSL's new sponsor.

I've translated main importan parts,
In GSL July, Korean girl group 5dolls will be the group that will be announcing code S player's names.
한편 이번 펩시 GSL July의 걸 그룹은 파이브돌스(5dolls)로 이번 시즌 선수들의 아이디와 이름을 호명하며 상큼 발랄한 모습으로 전세계 e스포츠 팬들과 만날 예정이다.
Korean Pepsi Marketing Yoon Hyun Lee said, "We decided to sponsor GSL, because GSL has global marketting value, and popuarlity we are looking for. We are looking forward to E-sports fans world wide in GSL July."
한국 펩시 콜라의 이윤현 마케팅 이사는 ”GSL은 펩시 콜라가 추구하는 글로벌이라는 가치를 실현하고 있으며 전 세계적으로 호응을 얻고 있기 때문에 대회 후원을 결정하게 되었다.”며 “전세계 e스포츠 팬들과 함께할 펩시 GSL July에 큰 기대를 하고 있다”고 밝혔다
