So let me explain some things. Dan was never an alcoholic (and I say that as someone who had alcoholic in family). He only relied on alcohol to sleep. He had sleeping problems and used alcohol as others use sleeping pills. Doctor told him it is okay to drink on moderate. Also Joo convinced Dan to come with him in the beginning of the summer so Dan probably did not drink for about a half year so his endurance got a bit down. Joo on the other hand was also using alcohol to sleep because after Dan left him, his night terrors became more frequent so he was drowning himself in alcohol, that is why his endurance is better. It is not that Dan is wasted, they are both slightly drunk so they are just in the mood.
For the creep. It was doctor that repeatedly sexually assaulted and basically molested Dan. Dan reported him but because the doctor had contacts, he made Dan to loose his job and spread rumors about him in all nearest hospitals. That is why Dan had such a hard time to find a job and ended up as personal therapist to Joo.
