omg I literally was thinking the same thing! considering this has the same subgenre (regretful top 후회공) as BJ Alex, it will probably turn out just like this lmaooo
(unless the creator makes this a super long manhwa so the gift giving isn’t the turning point and Dan leaves him much later, but the concept is the same)
After reading chapter 44, I think we have two choices : First, Jaekyung is feigning to be drunk just to save his face but being kind to Dan. Cute but not really credible. Second choice is worse : Jaekyung is really drunk and when he sober up will still be the same scumbag. I can picture a naive Dan who bring his gift but Jaekyung toss it and start to be angry and maybe insult Dan so hard that Dan finally break with him and go (the only good choice my dear Doc). Some time pass, Jaekyung’s shoulder worsen to the point he fell down from his champion title, a very depressed Dan struggles with his debts and his grandma who is dying and have real bad days. And sudddenly one day Jaekyung find the lost gift, open it and this trigger something which made him finally understands he was a real douche... And here will start the redemption arc.
I know this is a little too much "BJ Alex like" but maybe the author will surprise me... ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
