Does anyone know any short turkish dramas?
A Turkish season is usually 35-39 eps long. They’re ordered for 13 eps initially and if the rating is good, it’ll be extended for the full 35-39 eps. The problem is that when the rating is good, the writers and producers drag it out till the rating and plot turns to shit so they’ll have to cancel in the end. So the only short stories you’ll find are usually web dramas (DIP, 8 Gun, yasamyanlar, 8 eps long each) or series that get cancelled after the 13 episode mark, some unlucky ones end in 6 eps. I don’t like those shows because they’re usually awful or you’ll left with an awful ending since that’s not the whole story the writer usually had in mind as they had to cut it down.
Since you’ve already been recommended some, I’ll keep mine short:
Atesbocegi (firefly), 17 eps Eng sub: It’s a summer rom com from last year about a female taxi driver who gets hired as a private driver by a lawyer and they fall in love. Despite some of the supporting characters being annoying, I enjoyed the main love story very much as I didn’t find the main characters annoying as is usually the problem for me with rom coms.
Kis Gunesi, 18 episodes Eng sub, (it’s cut differently there but it’s originally 18 eps long): Years after ruthless businessmen kill his father and order the death of his twin brother, a modest fisherman adopts a new persona to exact revenge.
