Lee Hyun Joo, arguably the most recognizable member of the Korean team by virtue of her gender and her propensity for escalating excitement and climactic cheers.
Formerly a professional Starcraft 1 gamer herself (Zerg) and an eSports caster since 2001, Lee Hyun Joo knows her way around the competitive scene. Her role in the coverage trio is lead caster which means that as her two cohorts are receiving a constant stream of game information, she is interpreting their input and explaining the actual progress of the game to listeners. Days can run long, but when the other two gentlemen are swapped out for a fresh set of commentators, indispensable Lee Hyun-Joo remains on the podium the entire time. Her knowledge, her beauty, and her passion make her the perfect icon for professional eSports broadcasting.
Lee Hyun Joo's amazing hosting of GSL finals at Blizzcon 2011.

She has definitely become the face and voice of Korean SC2 to me. I'll miss her passion and cheerful attitude. Here's to a speedy return to the casting chair!
