Yes, it's just a question of emphasis.
回覆刪除Use 'which later became' if you want to make the past time clear;
Use 'later becoming' if the time is not important.
In this case, both versions are totally correct, and there is not much difference between them.
Hope this helps!
:)
Quentin, I appreciate your help.
