In each new episode of the Kızılcık Şerbeti (Cranberry Sherbet) series, which is broadcast on Show TV on Friday evenings, those who go to the screen receive a different social perception message. In the series, the events that develop when a young woman who grows up in a secular family falls in love with a man who grows up in a conservative family, and the couple gets married after the girl becomes pregnant.
Aside from the pressure faced by the woman who grew up in a secular environment, who is a bride to a conservative family, in the series, an image emerges as it is expected to change in this environment and to behave in line with the wishes of the conservative family.
In addition to the fact that the young woman’s preferences are not respected in the series, the differences in understanding between the daughter and son of the conservative family do not go unnoticed. Those who carefully follow the story of the Kızılcık Şerbeti series can also find social problems in this story.
Especially the scenes that emphasize the inequality between men and women receive different evaluations from social media. Fans of the series are making posts that draw attention to the press that Nursema character sees from her family.
A viewer says, “I feel sorry for Nursema. She was so strict with family pressure and unhappiness. It turns out that love made her beautiful.”
In a conservative family environment where Fatih can impregnate an unmarried young woman, the boundaries are very sharp and hard for a daughter.
A number of fans criticize this situation with these words: “Fatih can get a girl pregnant without getting married, but if Nursema loves without going beyond her limits, it will be a big problem. The difference between sons and daughters in society is actually the biggest problem. In fact, this is at the beginning of most of the problems. Neither woman has superiority over man nor man has superiority over woman. Both of them were created with such care, but especially the family structure spoils this event. As parents, you need to keep this in balance. Because the first education starts in the family.”
As you can see, those who watch the Kızılcık Şerbeti series do not watch this story just like a TV show. It also observes the aspects that mirror the society and gains some experience about the lifestyles of people who are not like its.
As a result, the Kızılcık Şerbeti series is on the agenda every week as more than just a series with its story integrity that invites everyone to empathize.
