## Synopsis

Vincenzo (2021) is a South Korean dark comedy crime drama created for tvN and produced by Studio Dragon. Song Joong-ki stars as Vincenzo Cassano, a Korean-Italian lawyer raised inside the Italian Mafia who returns to his motherland and quietly takes on an unrivaled conglomerate. Jeon Yeo-bin plays Hong Cha-young, a sharp-tongued lawyer who becomes his unlikely partner, while TAECYEON plays Jang Joon-woo, a figure tangled in the family and corporate machinery he is fighting. The engine of the show is a patient campaign of retaliation: Vincenzo gives the powerful company a taste of its own medicine, and each episode turns over a new scheme of legal maneuvers, underworld pressure, and public exposure. The series runs as one continuous twenty-episode story, a single season of long, cinematic episodes. Set in contemporary Seoul, it moves between boardrooms, back alleys, and Italian-inflected memories, carrying a sardonic, breezy tone that shifts into sharp moments of menace and sincere emotional stakes. Fans of Better Call Saul, Suits and Money Heist will find resonance in its blend of legal cunning, criminal flair, and stylish justice.
