Amazing direction with beautiful exterior shots. The actors have entered their roles 100%. The series combines drama, humor, strong scenes and strong performances that were evident from the first episode. I can't wait for the next episodes.

Cagatay Ulusoy has managed from the first shot to give meaning and depth to the character he plays. His gaze is captivating. It seems that he has worked hard for the role.

Demet Özdemir already has very strong (interpretative) scenes and I admit that it captivated me. It convinced me from the first episode.

The screenwriter has done an excellent job as all the characters are very well written.

PLEASE DONT CANCEL THIS SERIES ITS SO GOOD ILL CRY. Its so good but im afriad that the rating is too low it might get cancelled like Ruhun duymaz this series potential. The casting is at its finest this casting comes once in a lifetime. I hope this series goes on and i really like the chemistry between Demit and cagatay they look perfect together one of the best casting i have seen and i also love the backstory we would like to see more of it as the sries CONTINUES. As i said I see the potential of this series its amazing and only 2 episodes are in!! It got my attention. Not boring and not cliche.

51 comments after just 5 episodes??

Why is everything about this series so strange? Why are the ratings either 1 or 10? It feels like there's some bias involved and some people are intentionally giving it a 1-star rating. Even the worst Turkish films and series didn't get so many 1-star ratings after just 5 episodes like this one has.

Please stop this nonsense.

This series has been truly decent for just five episodes, and it probably hasn't even covered 10% of its story yet. How can you judge it so easily?

The directing and cinematography are way above the standard level of Turkish productions.

The acting is outstanding, especially Eshref's character, which suits Cagatay perfectly.

Honestly, it feels like you're criticizing this series out of spite.

All the accounts that gave this series a low rating or a 1 were created in April 2025. Isn't that a bit suspicious?

For a first episode, it was really good.

It started off a bit slow, but that's expected for an opening - introducing the characters and setting up the story. Then, the pace picked up, and the plot became truly captivating.

The beginning sequences & the production quality as a whole is very similar to the high quality production in some of the best television series.

"Esref looked at a woman for the first time in many years, he felt a warmth in his stomach like he felt when he first saw his Ruya, he looked at the girl's neck, there was no sign, it wasn't her... so feeling this way created a deep regret in him"

"Even when he was taking his last breath, he was still very handsome."

In 2001, Esref sees his dream... I loved the choice of child actors. I continue to watch with curiosity and interest.
