About Kara Sevda
Kara Sevda, known internationally as Endless Love, follows Kemal Soydere, an idealistic young mining engineer from a modest family, and Nihan Sezin, the daughter of a wealthy but troubled Istanbul household. The two meet by chance and fall deeply in love, convinced that nothing could keep them apart. Their early romance is tender and hopeful, set against the bright promise of two young people who believe sincerity is enough to overcome the gap between their worlds.
That belief is tested almost immediately. To protect her family from financial ruin and from the secrets that bind them, Nihan is pressured into marrying Emir Kozcuoglu, a ruthless and obsessive heir who is determined to possess her completely. Heartbroken and feeling betrayed, Kemal leaves the country, only to return years later transformed into a polished, calculating businessman intent on confronting the family that he blames for tearing the couple apart.
What unfolds across the series is a sweeping melodrama of love, jealousy, revenge and sacrifice. Kemal and Nihan are drawn back together even as Emir tightens his grip, and the collision of these three lives pulls in their families and friends through blackmail, hidden tragedies and impossible choices. Praised for its lush production and the chemistry of its leads, Kara Sevda became one of the most internationally celebrated Turkish dramas of its era, earning the 2017 International Emmy Award for Best Telenovela.
