This is such a beautiful end. Vincenzo is one of the kdramas that broke many stereotypes, with the story and with the characters. You see each and every character having their own personality, their own development and how their importance is connected to the story.
Song Joong ki as Vincenzo portrayed a kind of evil that banishes all evil. Being the consigliere of the Italian mafia, he portrayed himself so much alike them. I don't know the code and ethics of the Italian crime organisation but their main form of rule is respect and discipline. Vincenzo showed that . He is merciless but he does it in a dignified way.
Jong Yeo-been as Hong Cha-Young was simply brilliant and this is how the kdrama evolves. She isn't a damsel in distress kind of character who is in a dire situation. She is instead a very strong headed and an ambitious woman who thinks and also cares about other people. She posed herself to be very carefree and a sassy character who doesn't care about anything called fear. Yeo-been was perfect for this role and nobody could have done it better.
Ok Taecyeon was incredibly perfect. It must have been hard to do a role that has so much duality in it. Being the cute and innocent Junwoo to a very sadistic and cruel Hanseok was such an incredible thing to watch. I did wish he had a little more development for the audience to witness how sadistic he can become but he indeed did the role perfectly.
Kwak Dong Yeon as Jang Hanseok was impactful not going to lie. We as an audience never felt any closure from the fact that he could be one of the villains but he isn't a villain at all. He portrayed an abused brother in such a nuance, my heart aches for him everytime he was used and thrown. I wish the creators gave him a better ending :(.
Kim Yeo-jin as Choi Myung-hee was so good. Kdrama female villains are so less to see and Choi Myung-Hee being the brash and a cunning lawyer was honestly amazing. She honed that character so perfectly to the point we could have completely hated her.
Jo Han-chul as Han Seung gives a comical relief even tho his character should be as cynical like the rest of the villains but he displays a foolish lawyer with no aims whatsoever. So whenever he comes into the screen I'm honestly in the floor or either banging my head onto the wall.
Overall this kdrama is such a treat to watch and completely different from other kdramas. The romance between Vincenzo and Cha-Young was real and unlike the toxic ways kdrama men get to have their females was common, Vincenzo showed a very normal way of how it should be pursued.
I will miss this drama because it ended in a very relieved manner but hopefully there maybe a season 2 👀. We do not know.
