Why did Vincenzo go to South Korea?
Vincenzo had to flee away from Italy to escape his death. He chose to go to South Korea not only because it is his hometown, but because he has to recover something important.
With the help of his friend and right-hand, Mr. Choi, Vincenzo went back to Korea to set on a mission to retrieve the 1.5 tons of gold that a deceased Chinese tycoon he helped in the past left secretly hidden under the busy land of Geumga Plaza.
However, it was not as easy as they thought it was. As Vincenzo tries to reclaim the building, the tenants of Geumga Plaza stood on their feet and defended their rights to the building. To have everyone's trust, Vincenzo joins forces with the tenants of Geumga Plaza with their fight with Babel Group.
Eventually, the tenants found out that there is gold hidden under the building. Hand-in-hand, they fought injustice and moved forward to bringing the tons of gold from the basement and hide them in unsuspicious places.
Obviously, Vincenzo became a huge talk of the town. Not only did the scenes and landscapes had viewers' jaw dropped, but the well-written storyline also had everyone impressed. The portrayal of Song Joong Ki of Vincenzo Cassano is flawless that we never had once thought his Italy scenes were really not filmed in Europe.
