Pasta

I watched 6 episodes of this before giving up on it. The female lead is easy to root for and the usual trajectory of korean romantic dramas means you have every reason to expect her character to triumph by the end of the series. But the male leading character is so objectionable that it becomes ever harder to stick with it. It is also increasingly impossible to believe that she would want to go anywhere near him.

Nevertheless the mismatched couple might have kept me watching.

However, the problems are compounded by virtually every other character offering almost nothing to draw on. Their characters are paper-thin and their behaviours beyond credibility. Korean dramas excel at characters and relationships. It's hard to understand how this one lost the plot so badly.

A kitchen assistant dreams of becoming a pasta chef, when her chance arrives a new head chef turns up and has a dramatic affect on her life. Well acted by Lee Sun Gyun playing the head chef and the ever reliable Gong Hyo-Jin playing the assistant. My main problem is the writers made the head chef a misogynist with the lame excuse of the way he was treated by an ex girlfriend and the assistant was consistently stupid and put up with his bullying behaviour. Lots of cooking action and good supporting cast but way too long at twenty episodes.

This is hans down the best Korean Drama ever made its starts out slow and builds through out the 20 episode, the only KD that didn't get stale or repative.Learn the characters and let it breath

Very bad and confusing plot and characters writing. English translation was quite bad, making it difficult to get the humour or some conversations.

I couldn't make it past the pilot...

I love the comedy of this show and make me laugh every time I watch it. The cast are so cute tho.

You should definitely watch it and enjoy! I like it.
