So maybe I am wrong but the way I understand this chapter is that there is actually no other person in that apartment except the white haired guy. He is having sex through interference with consciousness through a chip while just jerking off.
Like if you kinda look at his starting position in the begining you see there is no other person, his standing position at the end is also identical - facing the shower head, meaning the whole sex scene happened through a vivid "imagery".
Remember how the white guy wanted to transfer seonwu's consciousness from one artificial body to another and the consciousness escaped? I am assuming that because of it the white hair guy had to invent a way how to "replace" his lover before his consciousness is found and brought back(?). And one way to do it could be by having a chip programmed with a feature that would allow precisely what happened in this chapter - making it seem that the guy is actually real. And that's why the white haired guy said "better than using a stand-in for seonwu" bcs it's basically his programmed replica (perhaps not programmed but more like inferred from and mimicking past real experiences)
