I finally watched Vincenzo, and I have to say—it was a wild ride from start to finish. This drama had everything: action, dark humor, intense revenge plots, and a main character that was just straight-up cool. Song Joong-ki as Vincenzo Cassano? Perfection. He played the role of a ruthless yet charismatic consigliere so well that you can’t help but root for him, even when he’s literally burning down his enemies.

One of the things I loved most was how the drama balanced its dark, mafia-driven storyline with quirky humor. The Geumga Plaza tenants? Hilarious. I didn’t expect to get so attached to them, but their antics made the show even more enjoyable. And let’s talk about Jeon Yeo-been as Hong Cha-young—her energy was everything. She was bold, unpredictable, and the perfect match for Vincenzo’s calculated nature.

The villains, though? Absolutely unhinged. Taecyeon’s portrayal of Jang Han-seok was chilling. He went from annoying to full-on psychopath so fast that it gave me whiplash. The corruption, betrayals, and power struggles kept me hooked till the very end.

If I had to critique anything, it would be the pacing in the middle—it dragged a little before picking up again. But overall, this drama was so worth watching. It had some of the most satisfying revenge moments I’ve seen in a K-drama, and that ending? Chef’s kiss.
