We are in the final stretch for Vincenzo and Mr. Koala even teased me this morning as he headed out to run an errand, telling me “Enjoy your Vincenzo!”. Unfortunately I didn’t enjoy it as much as I thought as would, episode 17 wasn’t nearly the comeback I expected after the one week hiatus and I’m not sure if it’s … Continue reading →
Oh my gosh, when I was typing the headline for this post it dawned on me that we only have 6 episodes left of Vincenzo. I feel like it was just yesterday that I started watching, wasn’t sure the drama was my cup of team, and now I’m in countdown mode. This drama has been the most entertaining for me … Continue reading →
Episode 12 on a twenty episode drama is always a bit of placeholder, keeping the story going on pace while starting to set up for the final arc to come. Vincenzo slowed down the comedy from LOL moments in episode 11 but didn’t dawdle on anything, continuing the strong sure hand in reveals and action without resorting to keeping things … Continue reading →
My impression of K-actress Jeon Yeo Bin keeps evolving as I watch along with tvN currently airing K-drama Vincenzo. Going from dislike to like to love much like her character Hong Cha Young continues to peel back each layer, now I can’t see any other actress doing this role. She is Cha Young and wow what a young talent she … Continue reading →
It’s midway point for tvN Sat-Sun drama Vincenzo and boy do I need a breather. Each episode is like a mini-movie at nearly 1.5 hours long, full of twists and turns and quiet lovely moments. The ratings hit a small new high at 11.375% and I once again wish the first 2 episodes did a better job at keeping the … Continue reading →
Things can’t keep going our heroes way in Vincenzo and the early successes are giving way to a true fight back from the baddies at Babel and their henchmen. Episode 9 had less comedy and a lot more death(s), which I should be surprised to see since the drama offed Lawyer Daddy so early by episode 3. Joon Woo is … Continue reading →
I found my new crack drama ladies and gentlemen! Patience has paid off as episode 4 of Vincenzo was so good I have the shivers and shakes and can’t stop thinking about the exquisite details. Our Vincenzo may still have his own agenda (tons and tons of gold, who wouldn’t?) but he’s going to mete out some of his own … Continue reading →
I have patience when it comes to dramas starring my loves. The longest I went with sticking with a drama before it reached payoff time was with Uncontrollably Fond with Kim Woo Bin and Suzy, that drama was 18 episodes of set up but the final 2 episodes was sheer perfection. I watch episodes 19-20 even now and I’m crying … Continue reading →
The second episode of tvN Sat-Sun drama Vincenzo can best be described by Song Joong Ki saying “I’m back, bitches!” and me saying “Drama gods almighty I have no f*cking clue what I am watching!” This drama is like Dong Ryeong from Answer Me 1988 got together with Jung Hwan’s dad and they wrote a script complete with 1980’s HK … Continue reading →
The best way to describe Vincenzo is the lawyer cousin to The Fiery Priest. It’s either a dish your screwball tastes love or you will find it awkward and no clue on the purpose of what you’re watching is leading up to. The first episode was a serious of scenes to establish character/motive threaded by male lead Song Joong Ki … Continue reading →
This weekend is the premiere of Vincenzo, taking over the big weekend time slot on tvN from Queen Cheorin (Mr. Queen). Starring Song Joong Ki, Jeon Yeo Bin, and Taecyeon, the story is about the male lead who grew up in Italy and become a mafia lawyer who returns to Korea for revenge and to enact his own brand of … Continue reading →
I won’t look a gift horse in the mouth though it’s really surprising to see tvN drop two previews for Vincenzo packed full of footage and different ones at that. It’s nearly 2 minutes worth of visuals and action with plenty for everyone. Song Joong Ki is the mafia lawyer turned South Korean lawless lawyer, and sorry if I’m borrowing … Continue reading →
I keep getting Lawless Lawyer vibes from the promos for Vincenzo, and both being from tvN and featured out-of-the-box lawyers perhaps that’s the reason. The promo visuals aren’t copying anything but the intense savvy male lead played by Song Joong Ki and the cool capable female lead by Jeon Yeo Bin just reminds me of that awesome OTP dynamic from … Continue reading →
