why is the subject not in focus?

Can't understand what I did wrong to get the subjects blurred / out of focus.

I added all camera settings in the photos. I was standing maybe 5-10 meters from the subjects

first time, looking for feedbacks (before/after)

I am very clueless about post processing an image in Lightroom, even after watching dozens youtube tutorials I still find myself just moving sliders and see what happens.

This is my first post here, I chose this picture I took last weekend because I actually like the subject/composition.

Since I essentially "have no idea what i'm doing" when I use Lighroom, here I started with WB, then basic tab, the medium contrast Tone Curve, the Color Mixer and the lens correction. Also I cropped a bit. No masks, no denoise (ISO was 100)

I am sure there are more things I did wrong, but I figured posting here could be a good way to learn and improve with LR. So please any suggestions are welcome.
