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.

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.

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 cringe?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 química do casal e o fato dos atores erem lindo!) minha nota é: 10000000/10000000☆

Super
I’ve watched this movie 3 times, I think it great, all the actors , strong male lead ( handsome and sassy co- lead gal, very pretty)…super, a tad of dirt on the floor… this will happen.Really nice to see the sassy one is accredited with tons of smarts and can deliver… I see so many movies that the female in lead position is either so timid or shown as totally dumb … it’s very refreshing to see a sassy, communicative, heart included in the role . The script dictates, but a rethink may be a positive, just a nice thought. Many thanks to the actors and writers.

The Best Crime-Dark Comedy Drama I've Ever Watched
If Flower of Evil is the best Crime-Romance drama ever, I would like to put Vincenzo in the "best crime-dark comedy drama" category. It deserved to be in the top Korean dramas.Pros:
- Song Joong Ki. Yeah, I know most ppl anticipated this drama because SJK is the main lead. But, I have to admit that he's really good at playing in comedy-dramas.
- The comedy is always on point. It will make you laugh in every episode.
- The twists are so smooth that you can barely notice them and they're always wrapped with comedy.
- It shakes your entire(?) body. It heats your anger up.
- It actually tells about psychopaths without putting it in the drama's main topic so no one realized that this is a psycho-drama.
- The plot is so solid that it satisfies me. No duration-eater crying and romance scenes. I love how romance being the least portion of the drama genre. Many crime/action dramas are overshadowed by romance scenes and it's terribly annoying.
- I don't speak Italian, but the Italian words used in this drama are really ear-blessing ? I would like to learn those words too!
- I usually watch a drama because there's/re my fav actress, but Jeon Yeobin really stole my heart in this drama. I honestly think there's no other actress who could fit the role. She's not cool and badass enough, but I think that is to balance the action and comedy aspects. If her character is the same as SJK's, the comedy won't blend well with the crime-action aspects.
Cons:
- Ep 19 will make you facepalming ?♂️The most common mistake in the action drama, just like what happened in Flower of Evil.
- The anticlimax plot is too short/too fast that I found it unsatisfying.
- The romance scenes in the last episode are unnecessary tbh.

High quality drama with an incredible cast
The plot of this drama is amazing, and so are the score and the action sequences, but the best part of it is most definitely the cast! It has so many supporting characters, yet all of them get their time to shine and somehow have an important role in the main story.Every single scene with the tenants was so wholesome, and I thoroughly enjoyed the villains as well. I was so impressed with Taecyeon's acting in this - after watching "Bring It On, Ghost", I was expecting something simple, with either very few facial expressions or weakly executed ones. But I am confident this role is a massive turning point in his career, as he was PHENOMENAL in it. Naturally, so was Song Joong Ki, but he proved himself long ago.
Vincenzo had several moments that were tough to watch. There are many deaths, a lot of blood and overall cruelty, so I couldn't really binge watch it. I also expected more romance than I got (fair warning: this drama has close to zero romance), but its value isn't in that anyway, so it didn't make a difference to me. My mother and a few friends also watched it, and we all agree it's an excellent drama.

"Romance"
I had heard a lot about this drama when it first aired the first episodes, but I usually wait until all episodes are out and that was what I did time as well.It is not often that I watch the trailer or read the description of the drama, I didn't this time eihter.
But there are a few things I do want to know, and I do scim through some recensations.
I just wanted to share something I would have liked to know about this drama.
That would have made my experience watching it more enioyable.
I feel like the information I found about the "romance" in the drama was misleading and it made me annoyed at times.
It had a lot of potential, it could have been really good, but now I feel pretty disappointed when I finished it.
I think there was great chemistry, there were a few teasers, but the season was 20 episodes long and there was only 2 kiss scenes.
So don't go in to this drama expecting romance because that is not what it's about at all.
(I truly liked the characters/the actors, it was entertaining)
(I haven't ever rewatched a drama yet, so that rating has nothing to do with the k-drama itself)

Hilarious, heartwarming, and so much fun to watch!
Vincenzo is truly a dramedy - dramatic, extra af and full of little gems of comedy that combined make for a really good time.The acting is phenomenal, and as the show progressed you really learn more about the different characters and they keep showing new sides to themselves. When I first started watching the show, the FL reminded me a lot of Fiery Priest - and then I found out later that it's actually the same director, so if you loved that show you'll love this one too.
The show centers around a Mafia lawyer Vincenzo Cassano (aka Mr. Corn Salad) who comes back to Korea and ends up entangled with the tenants of Geumga Plaza, which is on the verge of being demolished by a big (and bad) corporation fittingly named Babel Group. The acting in the show is just spectacular, not just from the ML and FL but also from the tenants of Geumga Plaza and the various guest stars that appear.
Kim Sung Cheol (from Prison Playbook) appears in a few episodes and is SO funny. There's a scene where Taecyeon sings the Produce 101 song and the comedic timing was so good, I had to replay it for the laughs. There's a subtle nod to Sungkyungkwan Scandal in one of the episodes (one of the earlier shows that Song Joong Ki was in, and one of my early favs) and the plot keeps everything moving quickly. I can't even choose one favourite character because I liked so many of them.
Did I mention everyone is secretly a badass? I love it.
Vincenzo is easily one of my favourites of 2021 so far.
