"This is the first time a foreign Terran has reached the finals of a premier tournament since Thorzain won Dreamhack Stockholm in 2012."

If we count a korean-less Dreamhack as a Premier, we should count Bunny's win vs Hyun at Gfinity as a Premier too imo

I think it was not counted as a Premier back then because it was Gfinity's first big offline SC2 event, which IIRC per default means it couldn't be Premier by TL standard.

Not by default, they decided based on production/stream quality etc. and it didn't really live up to standards.

All of the other bigger companies events (DH, IEM) get Premier by default since they've already established a level of quality that's to be expected

The fact that there were only 12 players must have been a factor too.

Before the region lock having a foreigner in any finals was super rare. All the foreigners in Hots got to the finals in smaller "premier" tournaments. All the others had koreans dominating. http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Premier_Tournaments
