6	''Pasta'' is a KoreanSeries which describes how a novice Italian chef named Seo Yoo-Kyung works her way up in La Sfera, an Italian restaurant. The new head chef, Choi Hyun-Wook, replacing previous chef Alfredo Totti, fires all of the women chefs shortly after he comes in, leaving them distraught. However, Yoo-Kyung manages to pass a blind taste test by Hyun-Wook to select the new member of the La Sfera crew, and manages to work hard enough to guarantee that position.
