Overview
Story
Kuzgun, an eight-year-old boy, lives happily with his family, including his trusted police officer father, Yusuf. However, their lives take a tragic turn when Yusuf and his colleague, Rifat, attempt to apprehend a drug lord named Sheref. Despite Sheref’s offer of a bribe, Yusuf refuses, while Rifat succumbs to temptation, betraying his partner. As a result, Yusuf is imprisoned, leaving Kuzgun’s family vulnerable.
Facing threats from Sheref’s gang, Kuzgun is abducted but manages to escape, only to find his home deserted. Forced to fend for himself on the streets, he carries the weight of his shattered childhood.
Two decades later, Kuzgun emerges, fueled by a burning desire for vengeance. Despite advice to let go of past hurts, he embraces his pain, transforming himself into an instrument of retribution.
Crafting a meticulous plan, Kuzgun infiltrates Rifat’s gang, determined to ascend to power in Istanbul. His target: Dila, Rifat’s daughter, residing in London and disillusioned with her family’s criminal ties. Recognizing the source of their wealth, Dila resists her father and brother’s illicit dealings.
Assuming the role of Dila’s covert protector, Kuzgun earns her trust, leveraging her assistance to infiltrate Rifat’s organization. Unlike conventional revenge tales, Kuzgun boldly reveals his true identity from the outset, declaring his intent to claim his and his father’s rightful place in the criminal underworld.
