SR. VINCENZO CASSANO.
O que falar do melhor drama de 2021?Com toda certeza afirmo que este drama merece o título, e ainda estamos no "meio" do ano. Uma obra de arte, super intenso e interessante, atores incrives, história magnifica, cinematográfia impecável.
Não tenho nem palavras para descrever bem como esse drama é bom. Então, vou comentar um pouco dos personagens e pode ter alguns spoilers leves.
VINCENZO CASSANO: Vulgo, meu marido. Não preciso nem dizer que o principal é o melhor personagem, né?
Lindo, carismático, às vezes engraçado, meio doido, mal (o que deixa ele mais lindo ainda). Super passei pano pra todas as maldades dele (é ficção, lembre-se).
Song Jong Ki, se entregou de um jeito maravilhoso a esse papel e eu me surpreendi em ver a mudança dele já que tinha uma imagem dele sempre interpretar personagens mais leves e brincalhões como em DOTS. Porém, tenho apenas elogios e ele conseguiu ir pro meu top 3 de melhores atores com esse drama.
HONG CHA YEON - No começo eu peguei uma implicância com ela, pelo jeito que ela estava sempre brigando com o pai mas depois percebi que todos são assim, até que a culpa consome a gente.
Gostei bastante em como não colocaram ela como a vítima ou aquela situação onde eles colocam uma femme fatale e é só ela se apaixonar, que vira chorona e tal. Ela a forte, do início ao fim.
Jeong Yeo Bin, foi uma atriz incrível que atuou perfeitamente. Até hoje não entendo o por que dela ser atacada por isso, se ela é uma atriz boa pra caramba.
PRESIDENTE DA BABEL E SUA CORJA: Passei o drama inteiro querendo voar neles, quanta raiva eu passei assistindo por que parecia que eles sempre saiammm impunes. Só queria que todos os podres deles fossem jogados a público antes de terem sido mortos, principalmente a da advogada e do presidente. Odiava olhar pra cara deles.
Os atores foram completamente incríveis, senti tanta raiva dos personagens mas sei que os atores são uns amores, principalmente o Taeceon ♡
Um grande shout out pra ele, pelo ad-lib de "Can you feel my heartbeat (música do 2PM)?", só faltou a coreógrafia mesmo hahahahaha
GEUMGA PLAZA: Uma grande família amorosa, que eu queria que tivesse sido mais explorada e mostrada. Pelo menos um pouco mais da vida deles. Se eu morasse perto de pessoas assim, nunca me mudaria. Eu me sentiria junto a uma enorme família.
Chorei muito quando o mestre de artes marciais leviu aquela facada, nossa.
JIPURAGI: Quatro advogados e um oficial da inteligência, incríveis. Amei todos os momentos de fangirl que o Sr. Nam e Ki Seok tiveram por causa do Sr. Cassano.
Recomendo assistir esse drama pelo menos 3 episódios por dia, por que é tanta informação que pode confundir. Eu assisti 10 de uma vezes e até troquei umas coisas no início kkkk
Se for assistir, espero que aproveite bastante toda ação do drama.
E se já assistiu, espero que tenha empatizado com a minha review, por que vamos ser sinceros, o drama é maravilhoso né?

If you go in expecting seriousness, violence and a thrill - then you'll be disappointed.
Contrary to all the mediocre reviews on here which are written around the time of the show's release (and hype) - I'm writing from when the hype is long dead and I'm now watching it a few months on.I do think if I watched this during the hype, it would have been disappointing, but having gone into the show with no expectations - I thoroughly enjoyed it very much. I also wasn't an SJK fangirl before watching the show, having seen him in Descendants of the Sun (and didn't fall in love with him during that time like everyone else lol) - I can safely say that after watching this I am very impressed with his acting and can see why he is popular not just because of his looks.
If you go in expecting seriousness, violence and a thrill - then you'll be disappointed.
It's a show that's serious but with a funny undertone, where the undertone sometimes overpowers the seriousness (?) I loved that they took the Mafia genre known for being dark/violent- and flipped it on it's head by injecting some good old K-Drama cliches, tropes and humour which I loved. Yet at the same time retaining the violence and Vincenzo's anti-hero character throughout the show.
To some, the sudden gag moments may be jarring, though I found them laugh out loud funny and didn't find them jarring at all, but well timed. The absolute fan-service story-writing does undermine the seriousness, but if anything it made me love the show even more. As a long time KDrama viewer, I actually found these cliches comforting. Can I join the consigliere fanclub too?
This does all come from a place of glorifying the Mafia/violence, which can be problematic to younger viewers however.
Were there plot holes? Yes. Could the characters be written and explored better? Yes.
But only yes if you're taking the show too seriously with high expectations, rather than a typical K-Drama (and from the trailer I can see why they may have overhyped it too much as something else). That's not to say K-Dramas can't be of quality writing and there sure are plenty out there. However, it seems to me that the writers wrote it as a timeless K-Drama piece to be enjoyed whenever and wherever, rather than some next-level disruptive show with some deep meaning. They wrote it knowing and intending it for the international K-Drama lovers - who specifically watch K-Dramas for their cliches and tropes across time.
Loved all the many easter eggs, Taecyeon's acting was fantastic. The quality of shooting , editing and cinematics are very impressive. I am a SJK fan convert and I can see why he is daddy now.

Must Must watch...!
I don't know what to say in this moment. Iam totally blank now just finished this wonderful drama called Vincenzo.. i mean to be honest i don't know how to explain what i experienced this past 2 months, it's getting better and better episode after episode.. i still remember those 1st 2 week of the drama started.. with 4 episodes there were lot of negative opinions i saw and its quite natural because initially its very slow and not a type of a interesting story telling..But From E05, the villain inside the hero jumped out all of a sudden and it was truly a very thrilling sequence when he just show of some fear to that prosecutor middle aged lady. Which was totally a mind blowing and damn brilliant reply to her.. Eye to eye that was his policy.. after that all Episodes has something new to offer, and its really interesting and thrilling to watch. Not only the so-called hero doing all the things he formed a Cassano family and all the members were just outstanding with their performance,
For the plot i don't really interested to explain anything, But just for a curiosity, Our hero Italian Mafia Lawyer Vincenzo Cassano Came back to korea after years with a personal motive, But that thing was not an easy task to do for some reasons, So he need a proper planning and everything.. the problem he faces and more are dealing in the whole 20 episode journey here, the biggest thing that they maintained a very good pace for every episode, there is nothing dragging or boring. But if i need to say some negative i think the villain has to be more strong. I mean you exactly don't feel that because ofcourse this is a one man show.. always the performance of hero look cool in your eyes , So you forget about the villain.. But again it doesn't matter at all..
You must watch this drama. It will surely surprise you.. So many Goosebumps moments are there... Totally Worth watching

Just go dor it it'll surely not.... Disappoint you it's a perfect combo!!! ✨??
I just finished vincenzo and yes it's just a blockbuster.🔥🦋.. Not only because soong joong ki made come back through it but because of the extraordinary Story, caste, and brilliant acting .....If you are a action and thriller lover do watch it as it's released gully now you need not to wait for next episode and trust me it won't disappointed you.... So the Story goes like this soong joong ki was abandoned by his mother due to some reason ( i wont tell that) and then he was adopted by a Italian family after years the Italian mafia came to south korea to get the gold left hidden by the boss but was stuck there due to sone reason and then he met cha young and he fell in love with her... Further the started to Fight against babel a company but at start they didn't know eho the real boss was. But soon it came out to be joon wo.. ( tbh It was really shocking
I didn't expect so)😑😳 and that's how he started to do all possible things to get him down and soon everyone around vincenzo became fond of him even the main villains brother left his brother and went to vincenzo.. Even there are some emotion scenes of death and even he killed vincenzo's mother that was truly hard to digest!! As vincenzo couldn't even tell her he was her son!! 😫😩😭😭😭
I would give its Story 9.5 because although the story wad great but what i found disappointing 😭😭was that there was Very less romance!!!!!! I was totally shipping chen cha/ power couple/ mafia couple/ vincha but we were barely shown any Romance scene so if are here to see sone romance sorry it's gonna disappoint you a bit.. Although there are 2 kiss scenes to satisfy your eger fully!!! But still ut was not so great at last the love story was left open!!! We weren't shown that what they did with the gold or how the utilized it... Or if they ended up together!! 🤬😡😠🤬
And ost or music was overall great... I would say but still something felt missing so i would give it 9....
And caste has done it's best so 10 points i could found any error in there acting further italian scenes were shooted virtually and still the vibes were same!!!! ✨🍄 so loved it!!!!!
I won't say anything about rewatch value cause i don't like rewatching dramas!!! 😂✨ sorry
And overall 9.8 .......... Just lover it!!!

The true satisfaction comes when you look at the entire plot.
From what I realized is that everyone has mixed reviews on this drama. So If you want to watch this drama there are a few things you need to know.1. The start is slow, like any other normal drama to a point that will make you even wonder why everyone is making such a fuss about it. But believe me when I say it's going to snowball into something really good. At times you will find yourself at the edge of your seat and the next second rolling off it while laughing.
2. You're going to meet the most eccentric bunch of characters, that you won't see in any other drama. The only sane character is Vincenzo and he later gets influenced by those bunch of weirdos down the story. At first, you will probably find it exasperating, but trust me those characters will grow on you.
3. Truthfully the story doesn't have much depth to it. but the true satisfaction comes when you look at the entire plot. Usually, most of the stories are good guys vs bad guys. but have you ever watch an evil guy standing alongside the good guys and kick the asses of another bad guy? and the satisfaction of the bad guys losing at every corner because of one big baddie on the good side!!!
To sum the story up, it's about the evil Wusang- Babel family bullying the Geumga family and the rest of the society with their power and money. This powerless party pairs with Vincenzo Cassano to fight against the opposing party. So a fight between the Cassano - Geumga family Vs. Wusang - Babel Family ensures. To put it simply it's like a fight between Godzilla vs king kong.

Série incrível, divertida e merece todo o hype
O que falar sobre Vincenzo? Apenas que merece todo o hype que teve e muito mais!!! Uma série de 20 episódios de 1:30h de duração e mesmo assim não tem um segundo que fique chato e monótono. Começo dizendo que Vincenzo é muito mais que uma série de máfia ou uma série de comédia, ela é os dois e faz isso magistralmente. Vincenzo não é um herói, nem um vilão, ele está mais para um anti herói charmoso, que acaba fazendo as coisas certas por motivos e com métodos não tão corretos. "Os fins justificam os meios" nesse caso. Eu gosto da dinâmica da série bem jogo de xadrez, eles ganham umas batalhas e perdem algumas, os vilões são extremamente cruéis, mas também super realistas. Eu não sou muito adepta da ideia de "justiça com as próprias mãos", mas gostei de como foi executada, realmente se dependesse da justiça, nenhum dos corruptos da série seria punido e eles continuariam com impunidade e fazendo o que bem entendem, como a gente sabe que é o que acontece na vida real. Aqui Vincenzo assume o papel de ser um demônio que pune outros demônios e pra mim o final com a aquela maldita velha bruxa (Choi Myung Hee) e o psicopata (Jang Jun Woo) sendo torturados até a morte foi altamente satisfatório.Sobre a dinâmica do Vincenzo com os outros personagens eu devo dizer que amei. Primeiramente amei a Hong Cha Young, acho que é a melhor mocinha de dorama coreano que já vi até agora. Linda, ambiciosa sim, não é sonsa nem metida a boazinha, engraçada, inteligente, e o que mais gostei é que ela não está lá para ser uma chata, pra limitar até onde o Vincenzo pode ir, nem pra ser a bússola moral (como a detective em Lucifer, por exemplo). Ela está lá pra derrubar a Babel, vingar o pai dela e também se vale do princípio que os fins justificam os meios, embora não seja tão extrema como o próprio Vincenzo. Outra coisa que merece destaque na série é como eles conseguiram introduzir mais de 10 personagens secundários relevantes e fazer você se apegar a todos e todos terem sua própria história e suas próprias peculiaridades. No fim eu já estava sentindo que todos os membros do Geumga Plaza eram minha própria família. Além disso, gostei de como a história do ouro fica como plano de fundo, a série não vira uma "caça ao tesouro", na maior parte das vezes isso serve mais é como alívio cômico.
Também tenho que falar sobre a construção da personagem Choi Myung Hee. No primeiro episódio, quando ela aparece dançando da lavanderia, eu até gostei dela. Quando ela se revela vilã, parece que tudo nela é feito pra passar uma sensação de asco. O visual desgrenhado, quando ela usa tênis de academia com roupa social, sempre dão foco nela comendo de um jeito nojento. Enfim, muitas vezes odiei mais ela do que o próprio Jang Jun Woo, mas é bom ver como conseguiram desenvolver tão bem uma vilã feminina, a ponto de só ela aparecer na tela já te deixar com raiva. A atriz com certeza está de parabéns.
Claro que eu não poderia deixar de dar destaque para a maravilhosa atuação do Song Joong Ki. Vincenzo é um personagem com vários nuances, ele pode ser sério poker face, ele pode ser mal, ele pode ser cômico, sentimental, bobo, charmoso...e ele soube desenvolver cada um desses aspectos de uma maneira completamente crível. Um ator que te faz rir e chorar com certeza é um ator incrível e Song Joong Ki me fez sentir várias emoções durante a série (inclusive amor, acho que me apaixonei kkkk), certamente merece o título de um dos atores mais bem pagos da Coreia.
Enfim, Vincenzo é uma série incrível e entrega absolutamente tudo, comédia, drama, romance, mistérios, plot twists... pra mim uma das melhores coreanas que já vi, vale muito a pena!!!

Genuinely good.
Vincenzo was a show that was enjoyable to the very end. The relationship was cute and not too overly romantic as that wasn't the focus of the show. The show integrated the relationship in a way that was sensible to the overall plot of the story.Vincenzo gave a satisfying and realistic ending. I believe that the show wouldn't have been as good if he didn't have to flee Korea after killing the villains. Though it was sad to see him and his new family in Korea, it was a strong and solid ending.
The story was very strong, and the actors executed their roles to perfection.

Pour moi, à découvrir...
Voilà un drama de qualité. Certes, il ne plaira pas à tout le monde, et je le comprends tout à fait. Mais pour ma part, j’ai juste adoré…Drama de genre plutôt policier et drame au départ, c’est en fait un joli melting-pot de bien des genres. Cela a été pour moi, un vrai ascenseur émotionnel : J’ai ri, pleuré, été sous tension, éberluée… Bref je suis passé par tous les stades possibles et inimaginables. Les 10 premiers épisodes, ont adhère, les 10 derniers on ne respire plus, chaque fin d’épisode nous laissant dans un questionnement terrible sur ce qui va arriver à l’épisode suivant.
C’est sûr que du coup, certaines personnes ne vont pas adhérer à ce mélange des genres. Mais j’ai trouvé, personnellement, que c’était mené de main de maître, et très bien réalisé. Aussi j’ai aimé passer d’un genre à un autre, et vivre toutes sortes d’émotions en un seul drama.
Le petit bémol pour moi : Catégorisé « Romance » également, si vous êtes comme moi, une romantique inconditionnelle, vous serez un peu déçus… L’histoire charmante entre les deux leads, restera malgré tout, très loin en arrière-plan, et on n’y goutera que quelques petites miettes. De quoi parfois, vous laissez un peu sur votre faim…
Sorti de là, le couple principal marche à merveille, les acteurs sont topissimes : Autant Song Joong Ki, porte son rôle à merveille, et j’ai adoré l’ambivalence de son personnage : Il a un côté sombre, noir, il le sait, et essaie de la modeler pour en faire quelque chose de « bien ». Et d’un autre côté, il a un cœur, et s’attache de façon touchante à tout les personnages secondaires qui sont autour de lui, ou encore dans sa relation avec sa mère. Un de ses plus beaux rôles pour moi. Certes, c’est un méchant, mais il représente aussi une réalité terrible du monde d’aujourd’hui. Et il a porté ça de main de maître.
Quant à Jeon Yeo Bin, dans son rôle d’avocate un peu barrée, elle tient la route, et une fois la surprise passée, a réussi à m’emmener dans son univers avec plaisir.
Leur duo est une magnifique relation pleine de complicité et d’amitié.
Les rôles secondaires, idem, une fois la surprise passée de ce côté un peu « fou », c’est un vrai bonheur de les voir évoluer, et s’entraider, et devenir une « extension » de Vincenzo CASSANO. Ils sont tous extras, chacun dans leur personnage.
Quand à Ok Taec Yeon, il est juste époustouflant dans son rôle de psychopathe, Chapeau bas...
Certains n’aimeront pas cette glorification de Vincenzo, et cela n’excuse pas tous les crimes qu’il a commis, en effet. Mais tout ce côté complexe du personnage, a été à mon sens, magnifiquement travaillé et interprété.
Bref, vous l’aurez compris, hormis pour le côté romance, sur tous les autres plans j’ai été comblée. Pour l’instant, un de mes meilleurs dramas 2021 sans hésiter.

The BEST ANTI-HERO Oddly Satisfying Adrenaline Rush Satire Drama of 2021 so far
I watched this drama because I was curious why this drama is 9 in mydramalist and 8.6 in imdb so I was more curious then watch it after watching the drama I was so amazed of the location they shoot especially the scenery superb and also after watching the special episode they did not shoot in Italy but they use only CGI WTF!!!! MIND BLOWN I was so speechless yes Director Kim Hee Won you did great!!! The story is very fast paced after 3 episodes it will not bore you watching becoz it has a lot dark comedy skits it will make you feel weird but laughing all the time and lots of action scenes with less romance thank God becoz im single lmao , but has roller coaster rides of emotions like in ep 16 and ep 20 its so painful to watch so I was devastated watching it and has lots of twist and turns or plot twist that keep your adrenaline rushing all the time. The acting is Perfect Vincenzo Cassano(Song joongki) is one a hell of a monster that could not be beaten his a fcking overpowered lol but I like his personality very cold but very witty always thinking outside the box and know how defeat his enemies smoothly and also the hilarious female lawyer and also her partner in crime Hong Cha young(Jeon Yeo Bin) is a weirdo wtf she supports Vincenzo Cassanos dirty mafia tactics to ther enemies because of corrupted justice they faced so its ok with me atleast its not your typical goodytwoshoes FL Lol and she is a badass too I love her!!!! Also all of their enemies are bunch of PSYCHOPATHS their so dangerous that they can kill you without mercy!!! Also a lot of side characters in the drama lol at least it will not be a boring drama to watch. The Music is spot on , a perfect OST , BGM and sound effects are all wonderful. A big thumbs of to the staffs, actors, writers , director and all who participated !!! Hands down, THE BEST KDRAMA OF 2021 SO FAR!!! Highly recommended who are a fan of satire, dark comedy, slow burn romance, action, mafia , and thriller.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
YOU WON'T REGRET
THIS IS THE BEST DRAMA EVER INDEED. I can't stress enough how good this is. Tha story, the acting, the character development, the VILLIANS, everything is so on point. No one could have played vincenzo better than Song joon ki. He's the best. Jeon yeo been is so good as Cha young. Their chemistry is so refreshing. The drama makes you hate the villian(jang ho seok) and at the same time makes you fall in love with actor (Ok taecyon) cuz he's so good at it. And everyone else as supporting characters are also out standing. You will fall in love with the Geugum plaza family. Finale will leave you overwhelmed. Totally recommended.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

100/100
I would rate this drama hundred times with highest rates and it still wouldnt be enough for one simple reason NO stupid character redemptions for non redeemable characters! Villains stayed villains till the end and those who deserved to die painful death died! Mafia wasnt romanticized and was portrayed as it is evil, even if it fights against evil. Actors did great job, i'd totally watch it again for the justice it served coz to be quite frank im sick of dramas with evil people suddenly turning nuns and pastors at the end repenting their sins.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Revenge is a dish best served cold
Thrilling!I usually am not a fan of "overrated" dramas (Descendants of the sun was a torture to watch), but this time I am on board. The mix of comedy and dark revenge is so fresh and so welcome in dramaland!
I had to subtract 0.5 point due to the finale episode which could have been SO MUCH BETTER (spoilers ahead):
- The smart and bold FL just disappeared due to an aching shoulder;
- The well-developed character that was Jang Han Seo left us in a disappointing way (don't get me wrong, I cried like a baby, but I couldn't stop thinking to myself that I couldn't care less about Hong Cha Young's boo boo seeing that boy alone...).
- Vincenzo's stupid behaviour during that whole "Hong Cha Young has been captured" scene.
Overall, the cinematography is very impressive, the ost and bgm go so well with the scenes, the acting is pretty much flawless, the story is (most of the time) quite nice with a lot of details on the revenge plots.
Of course there are some issues with this drama, mostly in the last 2-4 episodes, but to be fair I don't want to judge this drama on these. It managed to make me happy every Sunday evening, and gosh, that's not an easy thing to do. So thank you!
