I still don’t understand what him being gay has to do with him swimming…..I hope the mc doesn’t cut the ml off but I already know he is

It matters because being gay is still stigmatised and being outed could ruin Seungwon's reputation and make him a target for hatred and bullying, and potentially even make things hard for his family. Which is exactly what they people pushing the other (injured) swimmer would want. They've been trying to force him to give up his shot at certain parts in the olympics, so outing him is just another dirty tactic they could use to try to make that happen
I do not like the ml
