Plot

At the age of eight, Park Joo-hyung (Song Joong-ki) went to Italy after being adopted by Don Fabio, head of the Cassano mafia family. Renamed Vincenzo Cassano, he became an Italian lawyer, a consigliere for the mafia, and one of Fabio’s best men until he wore out his welcome. After Fabio died, Paolo (Fabio’s biological son and new leader) tried to kill Vincenzo; he fled to Seoul to recover hidden gold within Geumga-dong Plaza. Vincenzo helped a Chinese tycoon stash his gold in a mafia-secured vault within the complex, but the tycoon died. Without anyone knowing about the vault, he planned to recover the gold and use it as his retirement fund after leaving both Italy and the mafia. However, a real estate company under Babel Group has illegally taken ownership of the building and Vincenzo must use his skills to reclaim the building and recover his fortunes. Vincenzo becomes involved with lawyer Hong Cha-young (Jeon Yeo-been), the type of attorney who will do anything to win a case.
