The announcement was posted with several other player-transfer stories at MYM's website.

Starting on our own front here at MeetYourMakers, our StarCraft II Academy welcomes two new players: Jeon “PhoeNix” Young Sik and Jeon “Dragon” Yong Soo. PhoeNix is a Zerg player who’s played for such teams as WeRRa, MVP, Team ReIGN and Type Gaming. Not unknown to the foreign community, PhoeNix was the first player to join a foreign team and one of the first to have a stream on Justin.tv. Dragon has been on SlayerS and Millennium as well as WeRRa with PhoeNix. Though he plays Terran officially, he keeps himself keen on the other races by playing Random on the ladder. Both players play on the “High Master” level on the Korean/Taiwanese server and now both will be leveling up their skills with MeetYourMakers.

This description doesn't seem to fit with those 2 players lol:

MYM SC2 Academy is a project launched by MYM in late September of 2012, which looks to develop young and talented Starcraft 2 players into possible top tier players. The players on this team have all been hand-picked by MYM as we believe in their dedication towards their goal of being a pro gamer someday.

Well if you think about it, Dragon has been playing since almost the beta, even after being found cheating, he still pursued a career in gaming, proving his dedication. Pheonix also has been playing ever since, despite not having any kind of recognition at all. I suppose that is dedication in it's own right.
Congrats to the 2!

He said he was done playing WoL.


Actually, he said he won't participate in a tournament nor any other broadcasted games, let alone pursue a career in pro gaming in his public apology. He qualified for GSL code A right after anyway, so people know he's full of shit.

There's lot of teamless korean pros and MYM picks up a cheater? Unbelievable.

Slayers picked him knowing that facts. And you know how Jessica is strict, it can only mean that it was not a big deal...
