watching a turkish drama now and its just the right touch of fucking insane
#its called duy beni btw#and first I like watching it cause I speak persian and I never realized how similar persian and Turkish are#like so much of the same vocabulary#second the plot is so crazy 😭#its a bit dramatic#honestly watching so many foreign dramas im starting to realize american media is not nearly as dramatic as these other shows#nor are they as long THESE TURKISH DRAMAS ARE 2 HOURS LONG PER EPISODE#like is it that serious do we really need this many scenes#anyways let me break down the plot cause it kinda reminds me of elite#its basically about this girl named ekim who is best friends with this girl leila#and one day while ekim and leila are walking to school leila is hit by a car#and the person that hit Leila was wearing a clown mask and then drove off into the parking lot of a nearby school#where only rich kids attend#and so people are able to conclude that whoever hit leila was someone that went to that school#but the school covers up the whole thing and then to make amends offers a scholarship to three students from the neighborhood#and ekim wanting to be the avenger attends the rich school along with her two friends bekir and ayse#and boy does this school have its problems. like crazy ass bullying#and its all about how ekim’s trying to figure out who hit leila while also trying to survive the very intense bullying culture at the school#and you know after watching so many foreign dramas and seeing how bullying seems to be a very common issue in all of them#its starting to make me see how the us is a little bit different in that regard#don’t get me wrong we have some very sick and twisted bullying happening here#but a lot of is cyber and relational bullying#so not necessarily as physical or even verbal but mostly done through rumors and gossip and exclusion#and then with the added fact of being jerks on the internet#and although relational bullying is terrible the stuff ive seen in these kdramas and turkish dramas seems... like REALLY bad?#Ive seen a lot of Koreans talk about how bullying is a really severe problem in their schools but I wonder how bad it actually is in turkey#cause I assume duy beni is not the 100% accurate portrayal of turkish schools#anyways
