Everybody is pointing out the moment where Vinny said "fuck it" and kissed Cha Young back, but I don't even think that's it.

"Fuck it" would have been gone straight to aggressive kissing, but the first few moments before he closes his eyes... I don't even think he had any thoughts up there. I think it was shock, then some sort of "this shouldn't happen ! because.. because..." and he literally could NOT come up with any reason at that specific moment, so he lets it wash over him and he closes his eyes, and it's pure gut instincts.

He turned his brain off (well, she turned his brain off to be exact) and what gets me (beside the eyes closing, fuck sake) is that when the kiss ends, he knows he should get the control back, slip back into acting, turn his brain back on, but he LETS HIMSELF soak in the moment.

He keeps his hand on her cheek, he searches her eyes (and she can't even look at him, either because she's scared of what she'd see, or in case she can't control herself again) and allow himself to FEEL rather than think. He lets out the Vincenzo that openly loves her, the Vincenzo that wants to stay, and he doesn't even look away to hide it, like he normally does (literally every time, all the man does is stare of Cha Young doing some cute shit, look down and smile to hide the absolute devotion in his eyes).

I think that if they were alone in that moment, and if Cha Young had looked back at him, THEN he would had this "fuck it" moment and kissed her again, this time as himself, and it was a done deal. The man would have been 100% "I'm doing this, I love you, I'm literally never leaving your side, let me hold your coffee for the rest of my life."

The fuck it moment will be when he openly recognises that he loves her and wants to stay, despite his own self loathing. We're not there yet.
