Great in the first half, rapidly slips off in the second
Its just fine. Park Min-young looks pretty and does a decent job while the male lead did not manage to impress. The main villains, however, (Song Ha-yoon and Lee Yi-kyung) did SUCH a good job- they carried the show single handedly. The psychological manipulation and desperation was portrayed so well, especially by Song Ha-yoon. Apart from that, the side characters were cute and nice, but couldn't hold my interest for long. Overall, it's an okay drama- watch it on a lazy weekend.Was this review helpful to you?
Story is mediocre, but everything else is hot.
This drama is great on weekend afternoons, when you just don't have anything else to do. Its an entertaining watch but forgettable.The female lead is great to watch and also relatable, the male lead not so much. A lot of unnecessary conflicts arise which can be easily solved with five minutes of honest conversation, which annoyed me a little.
Nothing of value comes out of watching this, so if you want something light, equally funny and entertaining, you should definitely go for this one.

An okay movie, not a priority watch at all
I love Chae Soobin, I watched the movie only for her. I might be biased but she carried the movie on her back by successfully keeping the audience's sympathy with her character until the very end.40% of the movie were montages of the guy cheating that contributed nothing to the plot.
Overall, watch it if you're bored as hell and have absolutely nothing else to do. The movie doesn't make you laugh, doesn't make you cry, doesn't have any thrill element, only fills you with dread at the characters' bad decisions and their audacity to behave the way they do, worst of all, it all seems too realistic to brush it off.
The twist was unexpected and made the movie worth something. Would I recommend it to anyone? A solid no.

This drama is ALL about Vincenzo and no one else!!!
I was not keen on watching this drama but the pretty gifs on tumblr made me do it. The first few episodes were a task to get through but once it picks pace, it is amazing and a very enjoyable drama.However, if you're looking for some girl power moments or solid teamwork sort of a thing, you are going to be disappointed because Vincenzo does ALL the work and also takes ALL the credit, it gets really frustrating at times.
The acting performance by all the cast members is absolutely phenomenal, they carried the show on their back. Especially Ok Taecyeon and Kwak Dong yeon. Song Joong Ki is breath-taking as always, this time with his visuals AND his performance. Jeon Yeobin was great too, though I would have loved to see her kick some butts in the court :(
Conclusion: Vincenzo is a must-watch for the outstanding work of the actors. The story crumbles in the last few episodes and the whole deal becomes quite violent for no significant reason. If that's your cup of tea, you can go ahead with it.

Nah man, this is not it
I was prepared for a heartwarming slice of life, but this was nothing like that.The female lead was too nice, naive and basically too good for the male lead. Him, on the other hand was quite selfish and only occasionally kind, that too he couldn't do properly.
Most of the problems in this drama could be solved by 5 minutes of honest conversation. This drama was better off in 12 episodes, it would've been actually a fun drama despite all its story flaws.
Also, another thing is that the second leads are too clingy, especially the second male lead. Doesn't know how to take no as an answer and keeps complicating everything for our poor female lead.
Anyway, in conclusion, I wouldn't recommend watching this at all :)))
