Vincenzo wasn’t filmed in Italy
The opening of the Korean drama sees titular character Vincenzo Cassano (Song Joong-Ki) in Italy, carrying out his role as a consigliere for the Italian mafia. The breath-taking landscape views and architecture that cites iconic Italian locations captured the viewers’ attention. Thus, it came as a surprise when the production team revealed that none of the cast or crew stepped foot in Italy to film the shots.
In a tweet, Lorenzana said: “Sa UP mayroon silang ala-demilitarized zone (In UP, they have a demilitarized zone). Military can’t enter without coordination. What makes UP so special? Nasa Korean border ba kayo? CLOY is life na ba? (Are you in the Korean border? CLOY is life?)”
Lorenzana made the remark after he sent a letter to UP President Danilo Concepcion last January 15, informing the latter of his decision to abrogate the Department of National Defense (DND)-UP Accord of 1989 which prohibits the entry of state forces inside the University premises without prior coordination.
The accord was unilaterally terminated by Lorenzana as part of the government’s crackdown on communist rebels. He said the UP has already become a “hotbed” of communist recruiters and a “safe haven” for the enemies of the State, particularly the Communist Party of the Philippines-New Peopel’s Army (CPP-NPA).
