It seems the rebrand has been accompanied by a renewed aversion to foreign-made maps...I had a conversation with one of the top foreign Brood War mapmakers who says he was essentially told by the power that be: "foreign-made maps have no place in Korean Brood War"

Nonetheless more StarCraft carnage incoming can’t be a bad thing I also hate it and think it's terrible.
But whatever. Nice to see another season of high level BW getting made.

This makes no sense unless the people in charge are just racist. o.O IIrc, foreign entries were usually some of the better maps being considered for a season.
