It's like the deep pain and regret he felt for failing to protect Hosik was etched in his soul that when he reincarnated, those made him highly possessive and overprotective of the current Hosik.
This reminds me so much of the anime This Hero is Overpowered but Overly Cautious. I thought it was just some comedy and then the last few episodes just bitch slapped my feelings T T

The last part of the side stories kinda explained why Hyung was overprotective to Hosik. Seems like they got reincarnated and Hyung made a vow to always protect Hosik once they meet again.
I mean, you can see that Hyung became a stalker and after marriage, he got more possessive of Hosik.
