They do not take these matches seriously, I promise you that.

They might take it serious if the foreigner is someone super famous (e.g: IdrA, Huk, NaNiwa, etc) but that's about it.
About the lag, different homes in Korea are affected differently, MVP A used to go to ProS to play ANY foreign tournaments because it had slightly better delay. Same with how PsW has VPN's for NA etc and how MVP's main-house is god awful.
