Ok. One word that descries this drama is "WOW". Honestly speaking, K-dramas tend to go overboard with their emotions, their plots and whatnot but this drama was JUST RIGHT. It had the romance, the realisticness, the heart-broken watcher, the bitch. lol

If you are looking for something refreshing, something that you can relate to your daily life, bingo you came searching for the right drama.

Funny, cute, clever & charming w/such a natural vibe, its easy to immerse yourself in the show. Incredibly enjoyable w/abundant wit and humor that’s unexpected & refreshingly unpredictable. Just when you might start becoming annoyed w/a character or situation, something cute/quirky happens that restores your interest; like a late-blooming cactus flower ;] Chemistry b/t the 2 leads is above average; unguarded, vulnerable emotion makes you swear they aren’t acting..no predictable dialogue patterns, leaving you free to ride the wave of realistic emotions they’re feeling - & forget you’re watching a show. From prickly to sweet in .23 seconds. You’ll fall in love as much as the characters. Like the reviewer b4 me, I know quality dramas from bad & I hate wasting time watching disappointing ones. You wont waste your time watching Pasta..so dig in!

Hyun Wook and Yoo Kyung are absolutely adorable together.. I would watch it over just for them.
A little bit cheesy sometimes, at times funny, other times just fun- it was entertaining throughout. There were hardly any negative parts that stuck out.
Hyun Wook seemed very much like a sexist at the beginning of the drama, but as the story moved his reasons become clear and by the second half, his charisma and fairness in the kitchen are what stands out..
I loved Yoo Kyung's character for her amazing reserves of spirit and hard work. She is probably the one female lead in all the dramas I can think of, with a genuinely simple yet strong and positive character.

In the end, I loved the drama, and though all that food made me feel hungry, the one thing I did wonder about is the quantity of food that went out in one serving. It seemed so little.Really?

Going into this I had no expectations and this was my first time watching anything with the leads...

Story- Predictable yet so engaging that you won't want to stop watching by the end of it. The cooking theme was done so well that even though you watch them do the same things every day it is fascinating and not repetitive. The romance was perfectly done because it wasn't so intense/messy but it wasn't simple/without conflict.

Acting/Cast- The leads are known to be amazing actors already but they were perfectly casted because of their amazing chemistry. I fell in love with the entire supporting cast.

Music- The first time I watched this I didn't notice the OST but the second time I watched it I downloaded all the songs to my Ipod. I listen to the songs all the time now.

Rewatch- Already watched it twice in the same year and I'll continue to do so.

Overall Pasta gives no surprises but it really is fascinating and with the awesome cast and OST it really is the whole package.

Depois de tentar vários drama com essa temática de comida e não gostar de absolutamente nenhum, já não sei mais se tenho um azar tremendo com esse tema ou se os dramas de comida são realmente todos ruins. Quando penso que finalmente vou encontrar algum que eu goste lá vem ele mais uma vez, o desinteresse e a preguiça de continuar.

É tão estranho isso porque sempre gostei tanto de assistir filmes com esse foco, mas pelo visto ainda vai demorar a aparecer algum drama de comida pra chamar de meu, mas não desisto nunca vou seguir tentando...

Agora que desabafei sobre isso vamos falar sobre o drama. Pasta é um drama que já não começou muito bem, mas continuei porque tive a vã esperança de que iria melhorar em algum momento, mas lastimavelmente isso nunca aconteceu.

Os personagens tem exatamente o tipo de personalidade que me desagrada: a mocinha é aquela tipica mulher insegura, que não se valoriza e demonstra a todo o momento que não tem autoestima; o protagonista é aquele tipico homem narcisista, controlador, anti-social e irritante que acha que é o dono da razão e não pode ter uma misera oportunidade que já está tratando todos como se fossem seus servos.

Nem preciso dizer que achava a filosofia do protagonista de não aceitar mulheres trabalhando em sua cozinha completamente ridícula, não gostei nada do romance entre esses dois, achei o enredo desnecessariamente longo sem qualquer motivo para tal e nem mesmo os momentos que focavam nos chefes cozinhando conseguiam me interessar.

Pra completar o final é tão chato e desinteressante quanto o próprio drama em si. Minha vontade de abandonar era tão grande que antes mesmo que eu percebesse me vi avançando várias cenas desse drama . Não gostei, não indico

I keep coming back......time and time again

There is something about dramas released in the late 2000s that have a hold on me. A long time ago I went through a phase where I was watching every single 2009 and later drama, and this one happened to come up on my feed. The story line is relatively simple, nothing overly thrilling but still intriguing.

A chef meets a rookie determined to climb the ranks, and along they go on a cute and thoughtful journey riddled with bumps in the road, but with a bit of perseverance anything is possible!

So why do I always circle back to this seemingly ordinary drama?

1. Who doesn't love Gong Hyo Jin or Lee Sun Kyun? I love their acting styles and its no surprise they are big names in the K- drama world today. They are visually pleasant to watch, and their collaboration on screen is fantastic!

2. I enjoy dramas that take me through an occupation, even if it is overly exaggerated. I feel there is at least a speck of truth to their depictions and this keeps me interested. I can always go for a good chef drama.

3. For a drama from 2010, I like the progressiveness of the main leads relationship. Its not perfect by any measure , but I liked that the FL wasn't treated like a damsel in distress by the ML, instead I found him quite mean in the beginning. Over the course of the drama, I realized that his attitude was that way to push our main girl to her fullest potential. There were moments when he rescued her and all that, but in my opinion these scenes served to build their romantic relationship rather than to paint the FL as incompetent.


Overall, if you love a good chef story, you don't mind that this drama is over a decade old and you love the main leads this one is just right for you, I highly recommend. It is among the better few of dramas from the late 2000s. It's a charming kdrama that will fill you with ambition and happiness.

Based on the ratings and the fact that I didn't see too many people saying great things about this, I assumed this one was going to be not very good.

I'm glad that I ignored all that, because this one is amazing. In the beginning it was a little rough since it seems to be an older drama, but then it picked up quick and I loved every episode.

The main relationship for this one is so sweet to watch. He is super quick tempered and yells a lot, but he does care and shows it regularly towards the later half of the drama.

The Female Lead is now one of me favorite actresses. After watching her in The Greatest Love, this has cemented that opinion for sure. She is really great, and absolutely adorable. She is really good at making it seem like she loves this man, and is so over flowing with giddyness that it shines through.

There were some rough spots, but mainly in the beginning, and after a couple episodes, it really startes getting great.

I highly recommend this drama.

My description for Pasta: Simple, Sweet, Realistic yet Very Entertaining!

If you're tired watching some complicated mellow-dramas and wanting to watch something fresh, then you should watch Pasta for sure!

I praise the writer for writing a great plot :) each episode sure give us something new to learn, and for me, every scene is scripted so well. I love the conflicts in the kitchen that makes the kitchen 'alive'.

My thumbs up goes to the actors too, our lovely couple on screen: Chef Choi Hyun Wook and Seo Yoo Kyung. They're portray each character strongly and naturally, and i love all the lovey-dovey scenes when they are together. Not-so-overboard, but always sweet!

One thing that i regret "Why do i watch this great drama in 2016? I'm super late." if i knew it's this great, i would watch this one sooner.

I liked it a lot. It wasn't overly stressful to watch and I love loyalty in any romantic lead roles. Lots of cute guys and the acting was good. There were many cute and sweet moments and it's always nice to see a lead that appears to be able to actually kiss in an Asian drama. All the characters were well rounded and played well off each other. I liked that there were no near death experiences except the goldfish and they were saved at the start. I was impressed that the writers did NOT fall into the typical Asian drama trap where the story required trains or airplanes or long drawn out separations, evil ex's, missed phone calls, missing each other by a fraction of a second on the street or huge stupid misunderstanding to progress the story. They totally bypassed all that nonsense and did it all fabulously and still had the leads like each other early on and never had them hate each other after getting together. I mean they really did well I thought. I want to find more similar to it.

I honestly do not think I've ever been more bored watching a drama before, and I've watched a lot of them. I understand it was a cooking drama so of course you'd see the kitchen a lot, but I felt like I was staring at the same spot for hours and hours and it really dragged. Nothing about this drama caught my attention. Nothing happens in the story, there is no excitement or that 'I can't wait for the next episode' feeling at all. It was really dull and I would have dropped this a few episodes in but I was hopeful it would get better and it never did. Even the ending had no feeling at all. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone to be honest.

Pasta is one of the reasons older dramas have a very special regard to me.

After all the dramas that I have seen, I became worried about finding an excellent drama, but then I watched Pasta in 2020.
One of those dramas you wish would never end.

It revolves around a small world which makes it light and simple. What a comforting drama!

It is a drama well-written. The dialogues were interesting, sincere, realistic, true, funny, and hilarious. The focus on pasta and food was given a good amount of attention and it was very interesting.

The drama is captivating from start to finish. Not a moment worthy of skipping, and so many moments worth cherishing. There are many scenes that I wanna go back to. All the episodes were equally good and not an episode felt like a filler just to get thing going on. All events were equally important. The story is very engaging. The writer did a phenomenal job.

Characters are very well written and the performance is top-notch. Their development was rather unique. No matter how hateful or flawed they seemed, they were human. And they acted naturally.

The chef’s character had many colors and it was really well acted out. I never imagined enjoying Lee Sun Kyun in a rom-com, but he nailed it; especially the expressions. I could have really hated his character if it was played by someone else, but he was capable of showing many sides of his character fairly. He pulled off the ‘arrogant ML’ really well which is not easy to do. Gong Hyo Jin was the perfect person for her character. Yoo Kyung shined through her. The leads had wonderful chemistry. The supporting chefs, the waiting staff, and the management, they all shined through their roles. and the moments of their interactions were golden. The vibe of La Sfera was charming and really cute.

And for those who are concerned, although light and funny, it is not a childish love story; the characters are pretty mature.
The music blended very well with every scene.
I am way more attached to this drama than I expected to be. The drama is something you can relate to as well, sometimes.
I was hesitant to watch it at first, but sticking to the first episode sealed me in.
My heart cannot handle the loveliness of this drama!
The only reason I didn’t give it a ten is that it wasn’t extraordinarily overwhelming me with feelings. And I don’t easily give 10s. I might though after finishing it.

I am going crazy smiling like Yoo Kyung. "ye shep!"
Super re-watchable. And I am presented with another worry; how can I (am I supposed to) get over this drama and enjoy the next one?

This is a good drama for someone looking to maybe become emotionally stable again after watching an emotionally draining drama :) it's pretty light and fluffy and good to pass the time. The ending seemed kinda abrupt and I didn't really like how it seemed maybe she wasn't gonna get the opportunity to learn. I do like how you kinda get a behind the scenes look at a restaurant kitchen and how cut throat becoming a chef is.
