I am so late to this fandom but oh my gosh - what an intro to the world of Turkish dramas!  I don't understand a word of the language, but with the help of subs, I am so into the main couple.  Beautiful people, serious chemistry, excellent cast (main to supporting) and production, entertaining storyline - it all combines together into a genuinely good drama.  Highly recommend.

I have watched a few episodes of Kiralik Asik, but had to stop because of my studies. Sometimes I still watch clips of those two.  The leads have great on-screen chemistry!
