Vincenzo Achieves All Time High Nationwide Viewership Ratings With Finale Episode

With the finale episode, one of the likeable characters in Vincenzo, which was Jang Han Seo portrayed by Kwak Dong Yeon, died. Yes, it is indeed regrettable that he wasn't able to continue living despite choosing a different path to walk on but if we're to think about his origin, he's still part of Babel. Jang Han Seo had been a puppet all his life by his brother, yes he may had no choice but putting a blind eye on the cruel things he's surrounded by in order to survive, so he's all same selfish and cruel as his brother Jang Han Seok. But since he has chosen to change his way in the end, his death wasn't as brutal as the others in Babel which I think is already a blessing for him. Think of it, he 'somewhat' died for a cause which is saving someone and then the others were like tortured to death which Jang Han Seok, Choi Myung Hee and Han Seung Hyuk all deserved. So I'm already satisfied with the ending of Jang Han Seo. 

Jeon Yeo Bin Catches A Bullet For Song Joong Ki In Vincenzo Episode 19

As we head towards the finale of Vincenzo, we are getting a scene where one has to make sacrifice in order to save a protagonist and in this drama, it's Hong Cha Young catching a bullet for Vincenzo. With Jang Han Seok now out of other tricks to pull, he directly did the act of trying to murder Vincenzo but in the end, Hong Cha Yong, who has been kept in shape for a long time by him because of love, is now being used as a bait to lure Vincenzo into his den. When Han Seok accidentally shot Cha Young out of anger, the regret instantly washed over him which now I'm buying that 'love' he has for her that everyone was saying to be obvious from the start. lol Well now, it's really visible for me. For a serial killer like Han Seok, to feel emotions towards someone he just shot surely is a huge change from his usual demeanor. Yes, that must be love but it's built with a wrong mindset. Poor one. 

Kwak Dong Yeon Found A "Hyung" In Song Joong Ki In Vincenzo Episode 18

I am so glad that Jang Han Seo (Kwak Dong Yeon) is finding a family in the character of Vincenzo (Song Joong Ki). From the previous episode, we've seen Jang Han Seo shooting Vincenzo and I know most of the viewers thought that it was the real case, I honestly thought the same too! However, just seeing Jang Han Seo smiling for his 'hyung' Vincenzo at the ice rink, I already had my doubts that he'll do so. I mean, the guy really adores Vincenzo with that smile. He finally found the 'hyung' that would appreciate him and treat him like a real family. And I'm so glad that it turned out that way in the latest episode 18. 

Vincenzo Avenges The Death Of His Mother In Vincenzo Episode 17

It's been a while since I've watched  a kdrama in a while and the latest episode of Vincenzo is giving me a grand welcome. It's been a while since I've felt intense mixed emotions while watching a Korean drama and I've felt that with the latest episode of Vincenzo. I really thought that I would never connect with this drama because I'm half way through it and I'm just only 'okay' with the turn of events but with the previous episode last 2 weeks ago and up to episode 17, I'm just so stunned all through out! We're at the climax of this drama, people! This is the part that I've been waiting for! I was at the edge of my seat the entire time watching, I'm so effin' amazed with Vincenzo a mafia. 

Song Joong Ki Praised Vincenzo Co-Star Jeon Yeo Bin

Some of you may have not known and only discovered Jeon Yeo Bin in Vincenzo but she's been in the K-Ent acting since year 2015. It's true though that she officially aboard the Hallyu Wave by becoming Song Joong Ki's muse in Vincenzo. Vincenzo is basically Jeon Yeo Bin's breakthrough project even though she's an award winning actress herself (Best New Actress for After My Death in the 2020 Daejong Film Awards). Her tactless and free-spirited character as Hong Cha Young contributed in adding a spice of comedy in the series. Lawyers seemed to be smart, competitive, serious and with poise as they battle serious cases and Hong Cha Young is all that except serious and with poise. lol She's definitely breaking through that image of how we usually perceive a lawyer and I like that very much!

Song Joong Ki And Jeon Yeo Bin Work In Tandem To Avenge Yoo Jae Myung's Death In Vincenzo Episodes 3.& 4

I'm so impressed with the latest 2 episodes of Vincenzo! I'm just out of words! 

Like what I've said in my previous blog post, Vincenzo is the guy that we needed in Jipaguri Law Firm in battling against the devils such as Wusang and Babel. I'm so saddened by the death of Cha Yong's father but I wouldn't say that was unexpected. I'd say that if it weren't because of that, we won't be able to see Vincenzo go berserk and move like 'mafia' again. His ideas and fearlessness got me swooned. We all know that Vincenzo only plans to demolish and sweep away all the treasure at Geumga building but he got close to Jipaguri's chairman that trigerred him to fight for him when he got murdered and dishonored by his enemies. And we now also have Hong Chae Yong working in tandem with Vincenzo, to take on Wusang and Babel's wrong doings and get back the Geumga property in Vincenzo's hands. We got all of it thanks to Hong Yoo Chan's kindness. 

Song Joong Ki Works With Jipaguri Law Firm In Vincenzo Episode 2

Vincenzo got no choice but to involve himself now in the matters of Geumga Plaza. I think it was a blessing for Jipaguri Law Firm in general, fighting against the Babel Group with someone like Vincenzo. He has the balls that Hong Yoo Chan (Yoo Jae Myung), Chairman of Jipaguri, doesn't have to stand up against his rival firm, Woosang. Even though Vincenzo has other motive, which is retrieving the treasures of Cassano's late friend and client, I bet he'll get attached to the people around him in Geumga Plaza. I've read the synopsis earlier, finally, that Vincenzo would fall for Hong Cha Young (Jeon Yeo Bin) along the way too so my speculations aren't baseless here. Lol 

Song Joong Ki's Vincenzo Premiered With A High Viewership Rating of 7.65%

 

The first episode of Vincenzo garnered a 7.65% viewership rating which made it the 3rd weekend drama to have a high rating for it's premiere episode in TvN history. Although it didn't beat the drama Mr. Queen's premiere rating of 8.03%, it's still the first in the ratings for that given time slot. 

TvN's Vincenzo airs at 21:00 KST, SBS' The Penthouse 2: War In Life airs at 22:00 KST while JTBC's Beyond Evil airs at 23:00 KST. Since these 2 were new as well, I thought they are going to clash on the ratings but thankfully they don't as they have different time slots. The Penthouse is definitely going to roll on the ratings considering it's aired in a free-to-air/public broadcasting station SBS while both Beyond Evil and Vincenzo are for cable TV.

A Werewolf Boy (Song Joong Ki & Park Bo Young)

So I have watched a Korean Movie called "A Werewolf Boy" starring Song Joong Ki & Park Bo Young and dang it! I'm such a crybaby, I seriously cried for that one. lol It all started all so cute and Song Joong Ki you fucking adorable guy! I want you as my pet from now on!

But kidding aside, I am so grateful for myself for not deleting this blog because at times like this I know where to pour out my overflowing emotions after watching a movie! It has been a while that I actually find myself watching a korean movie or whatsoever related to fandom dramas/movies. It's all thanks to facebook clips that teased me to check out the movie! Damn it Song Joong Ki, I'm in love! hahaha! *fangirl reborn

For me, the movie was really fantastic considering that the story was revolving around finding someone that would bring out the best version of you. Soon-Yi (played by Park Bo Young) finally able to refrain herself from looking at the negative side of her life and focus on the bright side along with Chul-Soo (played by Song Joong Ki). It's nice to see the character development of the female protagonist as well as the male protagonist up until the end. Well, Joongki portraying a loyal dog (wolf) surely made all his fans lose their shits.

What made this movie so special is that, we're finally able to realize how fucking loyal our dogs are. Hachiko aside, of course. lol Even if the movie was a fantasy one, it still is able to connect to me not in a owner-dog thing but rather the emotions that the scenes depicted. Like what I've mentioned first, the change of perspective from the protagonist. Second the feeling of able to find someone that would stay with you all the way of your life. Despite the distance and the time involved. This one is a bit idealistic and I bet my life that this situation would never happen in reality. But somehow we have the idea growing from the back of our minds, the what if thing. Or maybe I'm just delusional. lol Third would be the kindness overflowing from the characters, except the bastard Ji-Tae (played by Yoo Yeon Seok). I was expecting that due to Chul-Soo's violent actions, the family of Soon-Yi and the neighborhood would create a union to oust the wolf from the village. Just like the usual antagonists thing, but it did not happen. Instead, they did not judge him right away instead they waited to really witness the violence before actually making a move. If it weren't because of the jealousy and ego of Ji-Tae, everything would have ended really well. But unfortunately, I'm not the writer. lol
Despite the cutesy and the loyalty of the wolf boy to his owner, they aren't just meant to be together. And it is manifested by the fact that the girl had moved on and was able to create or do wonderful things even without Chul-Soo. And by the fact that Soon Yi has repeatedly hurt Chul-Soo by leaving him alone again and again just meant that the love was not really meant to be. And I kinda pity Chul-Soo for that.
