    I haven't met anyone who didn't like Kerem Sayer...

    Excellent. An excellent series! Deep, sharp, logical. A well-chosen team - directing, casting, cinematography. I admire Kerem Bursin's acting, and I want to mention the excellent work of the entire cast. All the actors worked well together and played well. That's the case when there's not a single character you don't believe.

    There are several storylines in the series. The main thing is the development of relations between Kerem Sayer and Zeypep. Illogical and spontaneous decisions, heartache, and dangerous games are all in this tandem. Sometimes I thought, you're stupid, what are you doing! But remember yourself at the age of 18 - the whole world is for us and the whole world is against us - natural swings at this age. And the actors brilliantly showed these struggles and growing up.

    In parallel, there is a story about the relationship between Kerem and Zeynep's peers. The actors of the series played such diverse characters with their own story that you empathize with everyone no less than the main serial couple. And you sincerely wish every hero a logical outcomethe (and not always cloudless) ending.

    The gorgeous bromance of Sayer (Kerem Bursin) and Axel (Ozan Osmanpashaoglu) deserves special attention. Equal rivals, the wounded teenagers came together in a battle of characters and minds. Watching them play on the edge, changing the roles of "enemy-friend-enemy" is a special pleasure. And, in my opinion, it was Sayer and Axel who were characterized by real male actions in the series. I can't say the same about the adult characters.

    In addition to the theme of love and friendship, the series raises the acute topic of the relationship between teenagers and parents. I recommend watching it for every parent. It's easy to create a personal hell "for the benefit" of your own child! They hung up red flags, cornered them, and dusted off their hands. I would have whipped all the adults without exception. Honestly.

    I haven't met anyone who didn't like Kerem Sayer. But I met many people who hated Melis (Yagmur Tanrisevsin), and was not happy with the choice of an actress for the main role (Hande Dogandemir). If you haven't watched the series, I envy you very much. Look, the conclusions are yours.

    A Timeless Masterpiece of Emotion and Talent

    I won't tell the plot of this story. First, I want to say that it would be great if this series were watched by all parents with children, especially teenagers. This is a true anthology of how not to treat your children to prevent them from doing terrible things.

    Overall, the series is beautiful, powerful, and deeply reveals the characters' personalities and their transformation. All the characters are quite realistic. Each one has their weaknesses, their bright and dark sides, and makes choices that lead to consequences, sometimes bad, other times positive.

    The director of the series, Altan Dönmez, managed to create extraordinary, unique scenes, but above all, he succeeded in highlighting the immense talent of the actors. The actors conveyed the first emotions of adolescence in a very powerful way: their love, doubts, mistrust, despair, fear, but also their strength, loyalty, and fight for first love. In short, the entire spectrum of emotions was depicted.

    The couple portrayed by Hande Dogandemir and Kerem Bürsin is exceptional, incredible, and outstanding! I know that this series is over 11 years old, but it is still watched all over the world. I don't know how it's classified in Turkish or international cinema, but for me, this series can be considered a classic masterpiece. It's truly worth it-bravo to the whole team!

    I also want to highlight the amazing music, which was wonderful, and the cinematography, which was stunning and perfect. Altogether, in my opinion, this brought the series to the highest level.

    Incredible discoveries in directing and screenwriting make this series truly profound and brilliant. What about the scene where the main character, Kerem Sayer (Kerem Bürsin), declares his love? Personally, I have never seen such a masterpiece in any series or movie.

    This is the best movie about first love that I've ever seen!

    The series "Waiting for the Sun" is my favorite movie. I have watched it more than ten times. In principle, I love movies about teenagers, about school life, about first love. Before I got to know this series, my favorite movie was "Beverly Hills 90210", I liked watching the relationship between Dylan and Brenda. But "Waiting for the Sun" now occupies the first place in my heart! The love of Kerem and Zeynep is so pure, so sincere, so passionate. Kerem Bursin played Kerem Sayer so well - gentle, sensitive, attentive to his beloved girl. He is ready to do anything to protect her, he even sacrifices himself for her happiness. Kerem does everything so beautifully in this film - kisses, plays sports, fights, is jealous ... He is a real friend, a wonderful son, although his parents were not always fair to him. My favorite scene is Kerem and Zeynep in a tent by the lake! It is so romantic! I recommend this film to everyone! I'm ready to watch it again and again! This is the best movie about first love that I've ever seen!
