Although I haven't watched this drama in a while, I assure you that Smiling Pasta will make you smile. Although I haven't seen it in a while, it is a very cute little drama. Like all dramas, it isn't perfect. There were some things that weren't realistic. For example, there was a kick ball contest in front of the whole school. Obviously, this school doesn't uphold academic standards such as going to class. There were many more problems that I'm sure I forgot, but it really can't be helped as it has been more than a year since I last saw it.

The drama is lighthearted and is an easy watch... Although there is plenty of drama to go around, it wasn't annoying enough to make me want to shut off my computer.


Although it is off topic, Cyndi Wang always reminded me of the Wendy's mascot when she was wearing red pig tails.
