I liked it (yes, past tense)

I watched this for Taecyeon. I already knew that he is gonna be the main villain because I saw an article about his role before it got edited. And I'll have to be honest, I really looked forward to it after knowing what the story is about, and seeing that the writer was the one who also wrote Chief Kim (which is one of my favorite dramas) I had high hopes for it, high enough for me to open up naver every morning to check for news about the drama. And honestly? I liked it... at first.

The first few episodes were pretty good. I enjoyed the comedic scenes, and the story build up was pretty nice too. The ending of episode 4? I wasn't surprised about the reveal of him being the villain, but I was pretty surprised at the timing. Revealing the big bad in episode 4? Well, I guess... It's not a complaint though, because seeing Taecyeon's duality, playing innocent as Jang Junwoo but showing his true deadly colors as Jang Hanseok was creepy and cool at the same time. I'm not gonna lie, when I watched the drama on going, I kept rewatching the episodes throughout the week, and it was all mostly because of him. At least, that was what I did in the early episodes until the episode where his identity was fully revealed to public. After that, he felt kinda... tamed. Sure, Jang Hanseok was ordering people to do the dirty work for him as he always did. But I felt that was all he did in the later episodes, and it just felt so... boring. And I understand it was probably because of his public image. But at the same time I can't help but think about other villains that still did the killing themselves. Around this time, I don't rewatch, and honestly, my motivation to continue the drama decreased.

Next, the Jang brothers. I absolutely love both of their characters. When I heard Dongyeon is gonna be in Vincenzo and saw that his character's name have the same surname as Taecyeon's character, I couldn't help getting my hopes up for a supervillain duo brothers. And of course that didn't go well as their backstory gets revealed one by one. Though, I still have quite a lot of questions left about them that didn't get unanswered. It was a bit disappointing that there wasn't any more backstory on them, but I understand. This is the same complaint I have with Chief Kim, where I also have a lot of questions about Seo Yul and how his character became like that. But compared to Seo Yul who is still questionable and vague, I think Jang brothers had quite a lot of their story told, at least for a drama that's titled for the main character. Though I guess as a person who's an overthinker and imaginative, I appreciate them leaving some blank spaces for me to fill in with my own story and narrative.

I guess this part is my biggest complaint and question that I will never unerstand no matter how many times anyone tries to justify it. I STILL don't understand how Chayoung is so easy to side with Vincenzo. Like... When I think about it, it just doesn't make sense. Was it because Vincenzo was close to her dad? Because if I try to look into everything else, Junwoo was the only answer. She knew Junwoo longer than she knew Vincenzo. Especially at the part where Cenzo told Chayoung that Junwoo was the main villain, Hanseok. I still don't understand how she just believes him over her loyal friend who worked for her before. Was it because he's a mafia and he can easily get any information on anyone if he wants? I can't understand at all. There really wasn't a scene where Chayoung was questioning it or defend Junwoo. Come to think of it, I felt like she ALWAYS sided with Vincenzo and never for her intern. Was it because Junwoo was still working at Wusang? I don't know, honestly. Thinking of how their relationship developed made my head hurt more. Good for them ig.

Oh, and I also felt like 20 episodes were too much. Since it's from the same writer, I can't help compare it to Chief Kim. For me, Chief Kim felt perfect with 20 episodes, but for Vincenzo which I think the story felt off for me around episode 12, it felt dragged on for so long. Honestly, I think maybe if they had 16 episodes it would be much better, or at least slightly better.

But, through all my complaints and questions, I do have one compliment.... I think the OSTs are very good. Well, the ones with vocals are good, but I honestly prefer the just instrumental ones. They're really cool. But other than that, in conclusion, the OSTs are pretty good, the casts is also pretty good, I think that the story is very good in the first few episodes, up until around episode 12? where it just went.... wrong. I honestly thought it had the potential to be one of my favorite dramas that I would be able to rewatch, but I was wrong. After it ended, I tried to rewatch it at least a few weeks or months later, but I couldn't, I guess after knowing how the story developed and ended, it put me in a bad mood.
