I think parents with rebellious sons who have a reputation for whoring around with girls would be reasonably shocked that their son is dating a guy and probably attribute it to being even more of an ass.
I feel like if jaehyuk’s mom sees how hardworking garam is and how serious he is about jaehyuk (guy is literally buying rings that cost as much as wedding ones rn) she’ll probably either approve of him or feel sorry for him because she genuinely would think jaehyuk is hoodwinking the guy.
I think it’s less homophobia and more ‘this dude is ruining his life and he’s probably wasting this other guy’s time as a sort of statement’. Atleast I hope that’s the case. Has less to do with garam and more to do with jaehyuk’s mom not having a good opinion of her reckless son. (Without the context of seeing her son go from a homophobic straight dick to a lovesick bisexual househusband (like the readers did) it’s hard to just look at her son spending money on an renting an apartment and think it’s a good financial decision, especially because he was made to join the hostel to fix his spending habit in the first place iirc).
