There are easily more than 32 koreans. Last season we had 5 foreigners get in but guys like Zest, Byul, MMA, Nightmare, Trust, Billowy, Pet, Super, Creator, Myungsik etc were all absent
Are there 32 that are better than any foreigner? That's the real question

All I want for Christmas is 32 Koreans in the GSL. Race and balance matters a lot less for something like this than exactly who they have to beat tbh. Yes, but it is easier to say that than to say that I want SpeCial to get a group with Stats and Zest, Scarlett to get a group with INnoVation and Cure, Neeb to get a group with Dark and ByuL, etc. all of which are theoretically possible due to how they seed groups due to past performance.

NoRegret tweeted that Scarlett, SpeCial, Zanster, SortOf, puCK, DnS and himself were in the foreign house earlier this month. Has Neeb (or anyone else) arrived since then?

Do we know the reason for the different formats in days 1 vs 2? Curious why they would make one day double elimination and the second day single elimination. Do they expect many more people on day 2? I saw that you can participate in both days, but that doesn't quite explain it.
Also, the format on the liquipedia page is different from the one on OP, which makes it sound like both days are part of a single tournament.

If you don't show up for day 1 , you can't participate for day 2, so no.
And I doubt that there will be more than 4 players/ bracket in day 2.

Why do you think that? It seems like anyone that participated in day 1 and didn't qualify would want their second chance

Yes but are they enough ?
4/bracket for day 2 requires 48 players at least in day 1 , and I don't know how many players have retired after gsl 3 2017 (just like Curious ).

Didn't every qualifier last year have ~70 participants? I'm sure it'll be enough unless the qualifiers being over two days discourages a lot of people.

I'm hoping for good results like DnS beating INnoVation before failing to qualify by losing to NoRegreT.

thats just about the dumbest wish i've ever heard. no idea where this notion of rather give us bad koreans than foreigners in gsl comes from, makes literally no sense to me.
