Overhyped
I can't believe this has a 9 rating, really? The only thing exceptional about this show was the cinematography. If they hadn't mixed genres and kept this a serious, beautifully shot thrilling mobster romance, it could have been worthy of that 9. Instead the genre mixing of so many attempts at comedy, goofiness and more was really out of place here and cheapened the experience.The acting was just okay. Like I said, nothing else was exceptional. I dropped it at episode 6 and have no desire to go back to it.

Acting that will push you off the chair
The acting throughout the series is brilliant and she alone deserves a very strong 8. Each of the characters is completely convincing and they don't step out of their roles for a second. It's a pleasure to watch such actors.(....)
Song Joong Ki as Vincenzo was insane in every meaning of this word. Before starting this series, I was afraid of this casting because who thought of giving a role to a child-like guy? His cute face contrasts enormously with the character's being and actions but it works.... oh it works!
(....)
Kim Yeo Jin as Choi Myung Hee was on the other hand, a typical evil character that you despise from the very beginning, hate in every single episode and watch the drama just to see her bad end 😠Nothing more and nothing less to be said about this character.
(....)
Drama had a very strong cast that brought it to the top, but the script itself wasn't fantastic. The story presented was quite trivial and many minor elements could be predicted. The humorous scenes introduced were very enjoyable and balanced well with the brutal ending.
I totally recommend the drama. Why?! Check my blog for more https://my-asian-dramas.blogspot.com/2022/05/sono-vincenzo.html

AMAZINGG
This is one of the drama that makes you love them through humor, action, and entertainment. The emotions, chemistry and the duo between the two main leads are amazing. The whole team of vincenzo is amazing though, especially as it progresses. Seeing there bond become closer and closer is an amazing.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
A really good crime drama with comedy, great storyline <33(taecyeon s acting was top notch)
First of all I'll start it off with that I LOVED this drama ngl, yeah it might boring a little in between so not binge worthy but the drama blew me away, it absolutely exceeded my expectations, I got so much from the drama when I thought It going to be mid, if your looking for romance in this drama. It is there but it's a side aspect. Bro taecyeon ✨✨ nahh he literally carried the entire show, he looked so hot as a villian, the way he could switch between two completely different personalities was mind blowing. He acting was so good that it made me love him even though he's the villain. If you don't know taecyeon in the behind the scenes was such a cutie and just like a child and all, but as soon as the cameras started rolling he switched to a complete different person.The drama had a great storyline, it was really entertaining, and full of excitement, mystery.
Overall I strongly recommend this drama whether u r a crime or not a crime lover✨<33

Exhilarating!
This has got to be one of the best kdramas ever. The acting, the directing, the music...it has been such an awesome experience. There have been so many highs and lows. Watching Vincenzo go from sorrowful son to cold killer just shows the skillful acting abilities of this actor. As always the ending of ep 17 has left me gasping for air. Of course there are not enough words to describe the supporting cast. Every one has played their role to perfection. Even the music is noteworthy. There are only 3 episodes left and of course we are hoping to see Vincenzo and his crew step off in style. All I can say is wow wow wow….I loved it. It’s a dark comedy so when it was dark it was really dark but I think that is part of the overall appeal. I laughed, I cried , I cringed and got angry. It was likeriding a rollercoaster. Personally I never liked roller coasters but this was one ride I fully enjoyed. Kudos to the ml who I adore and to the entire production team.

Give it a chance and watch at least three eps, even if you're sceptical regarding the humor-style!
Ooooooooookay, I have a lot to say about this.First of all: this can't be anything else than a 10 out of 10.
Yes, I have to admit, while watching the first episode, I really didn't know what to think about it. Just because it is sometimes soo much over the top that it seems unrealistic and ridiculous. But against my better judgement, this style grew a lot on me and even became one of the reasons why I fell so much in love with this show. This humor made the gruel scenes bearable and I enjoyed each of Vincenzo's & Cha-Young's wins against the antagonists way too much. I also can't tell how often I had to laugh out loud or said "bro you're dead meat now", everytime the villains did something stupid.
Careful, spoilers ahead!!!
Now to the characters, starting with the bad guys. And ladies.
I LOVED how they were revealed and you couldn't tell right from the beginning, who was one of them at all. Of course, our main baddie was quite the surprise, but I wasn't even sure about lady right-hand in the beginning. And then there that a**hole lawer we thought we liked, or Cho Young-woon, the Geumga Plaza manager, who was suposed to be a friend. An even better twist, that he changed sides again and ended up fighting for Vincenzo.
The same goes of course for our baby, Jang Han-Seo, who was a bit of a pabo, but an adorable one. I really loved his character development and it was so sad, that he had to die. But, it made sense for the history, everything else would have been weird. He betrayed his brother and we know he would punish him for that, there always has to be a loss at some point. At least he protected our main leads and died as a dongsaeng to Vincenzo, that was really heartwarming. Also the death of his mother, Ms. Oh was expected and I'm sure she knew that he was her son when she died.
I loved all of the Geumga-Plaza family, every single one. Even the nutria, who was also one of the villains in the beginning. The same with our detective Ahn Gi-seok, he was just too funny. I won't write all of their names down, but I have to add that it was a pleasant surpise that Mr. Lee actually survived. Two very small things tho: I would have loved to see Vincenzo just onces as a godfather of baby Dae-ri, and once enjoying the food of our cook Toto. What a shame...
Coming to our Protagonists now.
They were the best, like, at all. Not good people, by all means, they had to become monsters in order to punish the devil, but they had the greatest chemistry, great arcs and character development, were a little crazy and just funny. I loved the very-slow-burn and that there was no focus on their romance, but it developed naturally. From kind of enemies to friends to lovers, the perfect, hilarious (and dangerous) couple.
I'm sure I'm gonna rewatch that show at some point, this is as great as The Devil Judge (just not that dark emotional, but instead on the lighter, funny side, which is not bad, just different.)

Absolutely Solid
I thoroughly enjoyed this show from start to finish! There wasn't a dull moment for me and I was constantly entertained and figuring out what was going to happen next!To put it simply, it's an 8/10 rather than a 10/10 because of 4 things:
-1 = If you didn't want me rooting for, supporting, and defending the Big Villain, then why make him ten times hotter than Vincenzo??? I'm sorry, I spent the entire show hoping he'd win. Vincenzo wasn't even interesting until he went full mafia after his momma died.
-0.5 = The absolutely unnecessary romance between our two MCs -- so forced and a waste of time.
-0.5 = Coulda cut out 80% of the Apartment Residence' stuff and made the show a nice 16 episodes rather than risky 20.
But, like I said I enjoyed the main plot and story beats so much, and thoroughly enjoyed every single episode.

I loved
The "Vincenzo" series surprised me, because initially I found it very violent, but as it progressed I discovered violence with a fun twist. The humor "embedded" in the actions of some actors ended up making the violent scenes fun. A plot very rich in its details and with precise continuity and no holes. It contains several genres such as: action, humor, suspense, crime, mystery, family conflicts, persecution and revenge,... and even "simple" love, but LOVE. An impeccable performance by Song Joong Ki (Vincenzo) a Korean lawyer who works for the Italian mafia and Jeon Yeo Been (Hong Chan-you)...also a lawyer. They form a relentless and enviable duo. A very striking soundtrack. At the end of each episode, there is excitement and anxiety waiting for the next episode. Despite being "in love" with Korean romantic dramas, I was surprised by wanting a 2nd season of VINCENZO. Congratulations to South Korea and everyone involved in the series.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Titolo che dovrebbe essere nella lista base di tutti
serie avvincente con diversi colpi di scena, si rimane con il fiato sospeso fino all'ultimo. Nonostante la trama seria si hanno anche diverse scene e componenti divertenti. Alcune scene possono apparire un po' crude ma merita assolutamente di essere vista. Mi è piaciuto particolarmente il fatto che ogni personaggio (anche quelli del plaza) siano stati sviluppati in modo approfondito, con il passaredelle puntate li si impara a conoscere e provare una sorta di affetto nei loro confronti (anche alcuni che all'inizio non ci si aspettava). In conclusione si tratta a mio parere di una serie completa in tutti i suoi aspetti, non mi sarei aspettata qualcosa di piúVond je deze recentie nuttig?
ONE OF THE BEST KDRAMA
Literally watched this in two days, one of my favs kdrama’s. I would really recommend, the acting, the idea everything was so interesting and I was so invested in it . the end was perfect to, really happy that I watched it and it deserves more fame because definitely a work of art. The acting was great, but as a european at start I found the main female acting really cringeðŸ˜it was so strange she jumped, screamed and more, like idk later she was okay, ofc Vincenzo was handsome the whole series and carried ( best mafia ever🫡) again I would definitely recommend, will be rewatching soon myself🤞Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
It's surprisingly easy to bange for the amount of episodes it has.
At first I thought I wouldn't like Vincenzo because it just didn't appeal to me. But after a few episodes, it became very addictive. It has a good plot, the actors play their roles amazingly well and the story behind each character is well thought out.It has the perfect balance of action, comedy and romance.
The balance between the mafia plot and the lawyer plot was perfectly executed.
I also really liked the character development of the main characters.
The side characters were also very entertaining and were actually found to be important in the story.
I think the cinematography was very nicely done.

Esse dorama será o melhor da sua vida!
Meu dorama favorito e vou te falar o porquê:Um dorama clichê e diferente dos iguais! é sobre um mafioso e uma advogada, envolve ação, é engraçado, tem o MELHOR ENREDOO, foge dos cliches dos doramas mas entra nos cliches das fanfics! você vai amar esse dorama e vai ansiar pela 2 temporada (queremos o desenvolvimento dessa casal na ilha e um mini Vincenzo ) é um dorama icônico, chato nos primeiros episódios mas fica PERFEITOOOOOOOOO, amo demais, tudo é bom (os inquilinos,o vincenzo,o carisma da Cha Young, a quÃmica do casal e o fato dos atores erem lindo!) minha nota é: 10000000/10000000☆
