In this series... I saw they mention In as an uncle. Does this mean he is Wang's real uncle as in related or is…
The translation is good. Uncle is correct. But they're not actually related. It's a cultural thing. In many cultures (mainly Asia and Africa) it's not uncommon to refer to an older person especially a family friend as uncle or auntie to show respect or affection. So your parent's close friends automatically become your aunts and uncles.

In Thailand you might also refer to your friends parents as auntie and uncle or even mom and dad. This practice isn't very common in most western countries.
