Official announcement: http://westernwolves.com/content/News/WWSC2_Sign_Sting-426.html

Haven't guessed it yet? Well, here it goes. Drum rolls, please.

We are pleased to welcome our very first Korean to the line-up, none other than the upcoming star Ju "Sting" Hoon.

Although Sting has just turned 18, he's already made a name of himself as one of the most established Terrans in the scene. The young and ambitious player has been team-less since August after leaving former team and our resident partners, New Star HoSeo, and has until now been actively looking for a new shelter. Needless to say that his notable achievements immediately fell upon our sights, and we believe that with his potential as well as our support both sides will take a mutual benefit in terms of personal growth.

Florent Dauvister, Head Manager, added a few words for the occasion:

"We have been looking to recruit a new Terran in Western Wolves as well as expand our line-up outside of Europe for a while now. It became very apparent to us that adding a Korean player to our line-up would be a very good addition to the team. Sting is a perfect pick for us, he is very talented, has a lot of potential and is a very friendly player who will fit perfectly in our line-up. We wish him the very best of luck in our organisation."

The man himself decided to give the following short statement:

"I am very glad to be joining such a presitigious org like WW! After looking for so long, I am glad to find a home that fits me so well. I am confident for the future, and hopefully we can all grow a lot together."

The Code A player will make his grand debut under our banner during IEM Singapore in just a week. Stay tuned for more news.

Clue #1 was "this player wants to pierce the scene," all I could think is CUTTER

Gratz Sting and WW, will be following you at IEM!

Really nice pickup there. I just hope they dont mess it up like a lot of other EU Teams that thought "wooow let´s get a korean, that will make our team so much stronger". Cost for traveling from KR to any tournament are very high in comparission to EU.

exactly, for example if they wanted to send Sting from Seoul to Dallas for an MLG it would be ~$1700 just for the ticket then you have to add in hotel, food, and travel to and from the event.
