Okay and understood. Sorry I do not have a satisfactory explanation for you other than the parents are not important to the storyline and they do nothing to advance the storyline and hence to keep unnecessary noise out and to cut the clutter the creators chose not to mention them.

So there is a conflict with marrying a Jin. Park Jin seems to think that Jin Cho Yeon is the only surviving Jin daughter and hence the heir apparent to the Jin dynasty. Jin family is matriarchal in practice so Park Dang-gu would need to abdicate/ relinquish his throne to Songrim and become the live-in son-in-law at the Jin family.

Park Dang-gu is Park Jin's nephew and his successor to lead Songrim because Park Jin does not have any biological children. So if you think of it as the "line of succession" then Dang-gu is the first in line. Again my guess is that Park Dang-gu's parents are not important to the storyline and hence to keep the noise out, the creators probably chose not to mention them.
What about DangGuΒ΄s parents? I know we have already many characters but should they at least mention them? Other…
My theory is that if there are people/characters that are not important to the storyline then the creators are not going to mention them. Of course Seo Yul and Park Dang-gu have parents. These two did not come out of thin air. But their parents are not getting mentioned because it's just noise and not important to the storyline. Same with Jin family. Aunts, sisters, grandparents, cousins are probably not important to the storyline and advancing it.
I keep asking the same question expecting a different answer - textbook definition of insanity, right? Lol. But is this really Wuxia? I so badly want it to be, but is it?
Wow, looking at their fan meet and now in hindsight ... I think that fight was bigger than we saw, had more damage than we thought. They tried to cover it up for us but deep down they might have more complicated situations. Just Wow.
Just my opinion.
