"It's been a perilous year for Koreans in WCS so far." Because in the whole of WCS one Korean (ForGG) failed to advance out of a Group in which a foreigner(s) advanced?

I think you must have completely missed the action in WCS EU, but I'm here to save you, so no worries! The following Koreans have been eliminated from WCS EU season 1 (all by the hands of foreigners as it were): First, Tails, Patience, YoDa, Revenge, Dragon, Daisy and as mentioned, ForGG. So far MC, Jjakji and San has made it to the second group stage.

I assume that quite a few Koreans have been eliminated in WCS KR, but I hardly think that is what was meant. WCS AM? Probably the same as WCS KR?

Has eliminated Jaedong, otherwise no upsets here in America Premier

Challenger though... Desrow beat Apoc, Sen beat Check, XiGua beat Tassadar (not really an upset).

I would argue that it is. Not an enormous upset, but still.

You're right, I didn't even think to consider Challenger League...
Here's some stats:

2014 WCS America Season 1 has 17 Koreans in the Ro32, the record is 18
2014 WCS America Season 1 will have 7-12 Koreans in the Ro16, the record is 12
2014 WCS Europe Season 1 has 8 Koreans in the Ro32, the record is 9
2014 WCS Europe Season 1 will have 4-7 Koreans in the Ro16, the record is 6

The final 2013 WCS Standings saw Koreans occupying 19 of the top 20 spots.
The current 2014 WCS Standings have Koreans occupying 17 of the top 18 spots

Not exactly a year of peril so far, unless you're specifically referring to Korean Terrans in GSL.

It is true that the number of Koreans hasn't gone down so far (at least in WCS EU) and this is obviously partly because those that were already in challenger league or premier league got a free spot for challenger or premier league, without having to qualify for it whatsoever. Furthermore, in WCS EU premier league group stage 1, Koreans were deliberately placed in separate groups so there will be no Korean knocking out another Korean at this stage (either). So the remarkable thing in a sense is that there won't at least be a nominal increase of Koreans in WCS EU after season 1, since only Jjakji made it through the qualifiers all the way, and at the same time, Daisy was knocked out of challenger league. The "peril" probably refers to the fact that (for WCS EU) Jjakji is the only Korean to actually make it to PL from the qualifiers. Six other Koreans tried and failed to take a spot in the challenger.

In my opinion I don't particularly like that players, regardless their nationality, keep their place in the highest league per automatic when the new year starts. The WCS ranking points are reset and so should PL be. Let the year start with a huge qualification contest in January - February to find the Premier League material of year 201X and then let the fun begin!
