I fear that Mr. Yeon is not accepting that I love you because he can’t reciprocate. Rather, he wants Yeomin to say it sober, where they are both level headed, and not just overtaken by lust (though it is not the case). When that moment comes, he will probably be able to confront his feelings for Yeomin.
