Sanem’s world is small—a cozy Istanbul neighborhood, her family’s grocery store, and a journal filled with dreams of adventure and faraway islands. She yearns to be a writer and escape to the Galápagos, but reality pulls her back. Forced to find a “real” job, she steps into the glamorous world of Fikri Harika, a high-profile advertising agency that couldn’t be more different from her simple life.

There, she crosses paths with Can Divit—a daring photographer, fresh from distant adventures, now set to rescue his family’s business. In a moment of mistaken identity at a glittering party, a kiss in the dark changes everything. Sanem finds herself drawn to the mysterious “Albatross” who stole her heart, not realizing it’s the very man who both captivates and frustrates her in the daylight.

With secrets hidden in every corner and ambition threatening to tear them apart, Sanem and Can’s story is a whirlwind of romance, dreams, and the thrill of chasing the impossible. “Erkenci Kuş” is a journey into a world where love feels like a dream—and dreams may come true.
