I had no expectations going into this drama, and was pleasantly surprised. What looked like a simple romantic comedy from the synopsis, turned out to be a good example of a coming-of-age story, like a more feel-good Perks of Being a Wallflower.
The characters were not particularly likable, some of their actions were questionable, some of their morals seemed twisted and till the end they show no remorse for their wrongdoings. However, like Burcu teacher said, each of them is a different world. They all have their own struggles, and in the end they just wanna stay true to themselves and to each other. They fight together against the hypocrite world. The show very nicely depicted that teenage feeling that you can be anything, do anything, and the whole world is at your feet.
Some other things that I enjoyed a lot was the love line between the teacher and the coach, it was exciting to watch how their relationship blossomed, orchestrated by the kids. No matter how their actions may have seemed manipulative, it was the teachers that made all decisions for themselves in the end.
Finally, the shining star of the show is Mert Yazicioglu, who portrayed Sinan. His eyes could speak louder than words, he really stole every scene he was in.
All the yummy Turkish food in each episode was a great bonus, made my mouth water for sure.
