A scenario like this eventually shows up in real life too, though it really depends on someone's mentality and how they handle those kinds of situations. I completely understand the ML's thoughts about this. He had seen the MC constantly go through situations where people asked when he was going to get married, why he wasn't married yet despite having a long-term lover, and all the excuses he had to make whenever people questioned him about it.
Then, seeing how good the MC is with kids and how much he genuinely loves them only makes that guilt grow deeper within the ML. It makes him feel like he's not doing enough for him, even though the MC never directly blames him for anything. Every time someone asks the MC about marriage or children, the ML starts to internalize those questions as if they're somehow his fault.
He begins wondering whether he's really giving the MC the life he deserves, or whether he's unintentionally holding him back from having the future he might want. Even though the MC chose to be with him and is happy with their relationship, the constant pressure from other people slowly makes the ML doubt himself and question whether he's truly a good choice for the MC. It's less about the MC actually being unhappy and more about the ML becoming afraid that one day, the MC might realize he could have had a different life with someone else.
I forgot their names lawl BUT anyway, idk about the timeline is this story tho, legalize marriage were mentioned and that it is possible but in foreign countries instead of SK, and children? adoption is an option for it even surrogate too!
Maybe the author will mentioned that stuff later on. Alsooo just maybe, maybe the author will make it like ML go smth like this: "i know we can get married to other countries but SK is our homeland" chuchuc stuff some people are prefer their country yk or wtv im just spouting nonsense
