Remember no one needs to be brave and come out. No one owes that to anyone. If they do it's their own decision in which they weighed the consequences whether it be good ones or bad ones. It effects their lives therefore it's their choice. Closeted people also deserve to have someone to love even if they don't what to go around showing the world who their lover is, it doesn't mean they love their lover any less then someone who is out. So to the people who are yapping that the MC isn't ready for a relationship just because he isn't ready to come out, don't understand that coming out ist an act of love towards their partner, but an act of freedom to themselves.
My poor dude just wants some privacy. Is that really so hard to give him. He has shown numerous time to the ML that he is not good with PDA. Korea is so fucking conservative like it's not funny. ML doesn't understand the fear of being judged not only by strangers but people you trust as well. Especially in conservative countries, in places where being gay is deeply frowned upon even your closest friend of fucking years can turn their back on you just because of who you love. I'm happy that the ML was brought up with rainbows and lollipops were everything is like the song "imagine" by John Lennon. But he has to learn to empathize with people especially HIS BOYFRIEND. Like the gossip old women of church might not mean shit to the ML but to MC those oldies have connections to his parents. Nothing hurts more then being a dissapointment to the people who raised you just because of who you love.
