About Vincenzo Episode 20 (spoilers) 

The Netflix show takes the viewer on a ride from the first episode of Italian mafia games to later episodes of dark undercurrents of South Korea’s own real estate mafia. Adopted into the Cassano family, K-drama lead Song Joong-ki is a formidable lawyer with a bloody past and a dormant but deviant streak of ruthlessness. Repercussions of family wars in Italy see Vincenzo heading over to his home country where he gets entangled with a snarky law firm and a rag-tag bunch of small business owners fighting to save a mall.

In the finale, the audience feels emotional to see Cha-young getting shot. This mortifies Vincenzo who looks up at Jang Han-seok who tries to shoot him but runs out of the bullet. Before Vincenzo could catch him, he runs away. Cha-young is taken to the hospital and the viewers witness a heartwarming moment when Vincenzo calls Jang Han-Seo his brother. While Cha-young is recovering, she asks Vincenzo to finish the job. On the other hand, he helps Mr Han and offers him a way out. Vincenzo is now looking for Choi Myung-Hee who has been released. The ending includes Mr Han getting killed in court by two men and the Cassano family getting involved. The episode promises a cinematic ending to the drama.
