Still from 'Thank You, Next' (2024)Netflix
If you’re a fan of romantic Korean and Chinese TV shows, with their unrealistically good-looking lead characters and swoonworthy moments, you cannot give Turkish romantic dramas a miss.

A little more intense than their East Asian counterparts, Turkish romantic TV shows have everything we love and need in our dramas, from aforementioned good-looking leads to storylines that make you gasp, swoon, cry, and laugh across their episodes.
