‘La traición’ comes to Telecinco this Wednesday and becomes one of the star content of the summer’s most-watched time. The three names featured in the Turkish version—Hatice Şendil (‘A piece of me’), İsmail Demirci (‘Yıldız, an indomitable love’) and Sera Kutlubey (‘Hercai’)—represent the protagonists of this love triangle in this Turkish actress adaptation. From the Korean drama ‘The Queen’s House’. We are reviewing ‘Who’s Who’ of Telecinco’s new Turkish series ‘La traición’.
Neslihan (Hatice Şendil)
Intelligent, strong, educated and kind: this is Neslihan, who was born into a wealthy family. Married to Murat, she believes her life is like heaven, until she discovers her husband’s infidelity, which will destabilize her existence.
Murad (Ismail Demirci)
Thanks to his wife Neslihan, Murat managed to climb the social ladder and become a respected member of the society. He is a charismatic and attractive man, but also a narcissist who is financially dependent on his wife’s family business and will do anything in his power to maintain his status.
Damla (Sera Kutlubey)
Damla, who lost her parents while she was studying at the institute, was left an orphan. His uncle confiscated the family fortune and barely managed to study Fine Arts at university, a fact that marked his character. Her life will change unexpectedly when she meets the handsome married Murat, whom she falls in love with and has an affair with.
Şahika (Perihan Savaş)
Neslihan’s mother, Şahika, is an ambitious woman who loves her job and wants her daughter to be more involved in the family business. Disciplined, strict and determined, she chose to live alone after her husband left home. On a personal level, she blames herself for the death of her daughter, who took her own life as a teenager.
In the first episode of ‘Betrayal’
Neslihan is living an obvious family happiness with her husband Murat and their two children. One day, he has a health problem at the gym and Damla, a young woman with whom he has developed a strong friendship, helps him. After a series of events, Neslihan invites Damla to live in the guesthouse for a while, unaware that she is actually her husband’s mistress.
THIS IS A ‘TRAIZON’
A member of an influential family epic who owns a prestigious shoe company, Neslihan is a woman enjoying a seemingly idyllic life with her husband Murat and their two young children. Damla, on the other hand, is a young designer who continues her relationship with Murat and decides to befriend Neslihan and start a worked-out plan to enter her life.
One day, Neslihan has a health problem and the person who helps her is Damla. He gratefully invites her to live in the guesthouse he owns, unaware of who he really is. Damla, who takes this situation as an opportunity, will interfere in family and couple life for a single purpose: to break that marriage. Later, Neslihan, who learns that her husband betrayed her, will continue on her way for her family and children and will find the strength to fight hard.
