Another Vincenzo but not as good.

I had this drama in my list for a while now, but it wasn't a priority because I had a long list to finish before this.

That being said, I dived into this show without seeing and details like synopsis, cast or production team. I was aware of the main cast tho(Who isn't?).
However, it took me just 30 minutes in the first episode to realise that it's a drama directed by Director Kim Hee Won(the brilliant mind behind Vincenzo).

Despite the fact that Vincenzo was a masterpiece, I wasn't expecting a show that was produced exactly the same. Identical meaning - the same dynamics between the leads(less chemistry here tho), the same music vibes(not as catchy as Vincenzo), the same deaths and drama sequences and most of all, an unexpected villian (but I could predict that early on in the show, so that didn't come as a surprise to me). My suspicion of Kim Hee Won was solidified when the end credits rolled after each episode - the dramatic music with name of the drama banging on the screen(ALL VINCENZO FGS).

In my opinion, the show was pretty good, it was entertaining and had a well defined story. The cast did a good job with their characters as well. Not much re-watch value but it's a pretty good watch one time for sure.

I know I keep saying this but - IT FELT LIKE WATCHING VINCENZO WITH A DIFFERENT STORYLINE. Because of that, I kept making comparisons at each step and that took away ALOT from my watching experience.
