It's his decision with input from you and his parents. His connection to parents will always be stronger than anything he will have with you. Kids and marriage or not. Good luck.

When some people believe in something, it's hard to make them change their minds. It's true, if you got married it will take them awhile to accept you in the family. Believe me, I know I've seen it first hand. I am Asian and my husband is white. We've been married 7 1/2 years. But it really doesn't matter who the daughter marries, it really only matters who their son's marry. Not that my parents don't love my husband. The reason why is because you are the one that will help them carry on their namesake. Unless you want to spend the rest of your life proving to them that your good enough for their son - you might want to just thank your lucky stars that you got out when you did. I hate to say it that way.

Move on. The Korean culture is very strong on familial obedience. There is almost no chance of success once the parents oppose your relationship.

well as you can see every culture has their little perks in live . He probably did this to keep peace in the family . keep in touch with him , he will be sorting out his feelings and the family tradition thing that is on him ,right now he has a lot to deal with . Hang in there and the leaf might turn for you .
Good luck
