I’m pretty sure it is implicitly grooming, just not explicitly. The last chapter tells us that ML has been in love with MC for a long time. MC has only been the age of consent for 1 year (19 in Korea) so he has definitely been in love with MC when he was a minor, potentially from the start since his love is compared to the tattoos that he started getting so long ago.
Which like, basically, I think an adult with romantic/sexual feelings for the child he’s raising kinda can’t avoid grooming them.
grooming at it finest lol
the incest kink is crazy with this one (their brother relationship and the daddy kink on the bed...) + the mc being so infantilized especially with the teddy bear on the sex scene and the worst the ml does see him like a child forever imo
it feels sm like pedophilia guys....
