    Happy New Year Kivanc, may you have much continued success with your career and personal life. I hope you come to America soon. If you are ever near Nashville, Tn. I most defiently want to come see you.
    I’ve been a fan ever since 2020 when I first discovered Kurt Seyit v Sura on Netflix.
    I am wanting to watch the new series The Submarine Story so much. I am still watching all your other series over and over to get my daily Kivanc fix.

    I have been waiting for Netflix to release Kivanc Tatlitug latest project “The Submarine Story” or “An Undersea Story” when will we be seeing it on Netflix?

  3. Although I would watch Kivanc T.in anything. Im not a fan of the type of stories The writer usually creates. I know they are popular with a large audience. And im somwhat familiar with his Netflix shows I watched the Gift because of Baren. Its was ok the actors did a good job and of course Im a fan of Barens but it wasn’t my favourite story line.Just my opinion
