[TW-Drama Review] Smiling Pasta (2006)

Smiling Pasta was the first Taiwanese drama I’ve ever watched and it really got me to watch other dramas also. It’s a really cute story and the actors are really the perfect choice for this drama. Basically this drama focus’ on the 4 main characters, even thought there are others such as family and friends, it doesn’t really involve them as much as other dramas would have.

About The Drama:
