I found it to have a really slow at the start but then BOOOOOOM

Was looking for a different genre of drama to watch. you know, something like a breather. And SJK and JYB were the main casts so more the reason to watch.

The first few episodes, I was trying to grasp what's the main plot and for me, I found the first few episodes a little bit too slow in terms of phasing. So I started to question whether or not this was worth the 20 episodes. Because you know, even for some dramas, 16 eps is a bit too long if the plot was static.

But then after episode 3 everything started making sense for me. Bit by bit the story gets more and more dynamic and before I knew it I was hooked.

Vincenzo is not really a perfect drama, it has its loopholes. One of which is that, they keep branding the male protagonist as a "psycho" but they kept on portraying him as someone who is capable of emotions, which is really contradicting. But you know what, overall I'm willing to turn a blind eye on those small loopholes because the charms of this drama outweighs them.

The ending was really satisfying. It was literally brutal. But anything else would have been a dishonor to the "mafia" image that they kept on building up since the first episode. It was sad to see Jang Han Seo die but I think if they all lived in the end, it would've been too good to be true.

Anyway, I'm not sure if this drama will get a S2. If it does, I hope Netflix does a fine job on it.

Kudos to everyone!!!!!
