Sad thing is, Korea is only going to be stronger next year. Korea is still recovering from the mass exodus and they're still the top region.

There will be a second exodus after this championship though. I don't know how long Korea can hold while losing 20 of its top players each year. Eventually Korea will fall to Chinese money.

Not necessarily. SKT will probably keep their players, chances are KT can do that as well. Also China might be less inclined to buy another pack of players given that they bought top talent and performed even worse. Unless - of course - they want to turn LPL into LCK@China but I imagine fans in China won't be very happy about it.

The exodus last year only occurred due to enforcement of the one-team-per-organization rule leaving a massive number of players teamless. Money alone wasn't enough of an impetus for it to happen--on an individual level, some players might have been enticed to leave, but the massive scale would not have been possible without forced restructuring of teams thanks to Riot Korea.

I question the possibility of another major exodus without massive restructuring of LCK again. A foreign team seems appealing when your team just booted you off their main roster and the alternative is finding/forming an unsponsored amateur team, but players with a stable spot on a current team have much less reason to leave.

EU/US only get KR rejects. Their loss has little impact on the scene.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

It's already rumoured that NA is aiming for top LCK players and was going with offers.
And Europe isn't really that attractive to Koreans, considering that NA/CN have big streaming culture.

In a way NA/EU/TW taking the eager rookies is as harmful since there's no one to replace players once they hit their expiry date (see all of CJ Entus bar Coco) but Korea seems to be able to find new talents for the upcoming year like BDD on CJ, Kuzan on Jin Air and Flaw on SBENU.

Riot only uses their casters for final.

exodus was due to more than one team rule as many amateur and trainee types were also lured by greater than 0 money.
