He Who Falls on His Own Doesn't Cry (Kendi Düşen Ağlamaz) (translated)

NG Medya produced the Turkish romantic comedy series Kendi Düşen Ağlamaz, broadcast on TRT 1. Its first episode aired on 22 June 2023, and it handles love and family themes in a light, humorous tone. The title, roughly "one who falls on their own doesn't cry", is a saying about not blaming others for what you bring on yourself. The series is adapted from Ayşegül Çiçekoğlu's 2017 novel of the same name.

At its centre is Alize, who lost her mother on the day she was born and was indulged by her father while growing up. Beautiful but selfish and spoiled, Alize is furious to hear that her father is going to remarry. To take her revenge she decides to stage a fake marriage with a man her father would never approve of, but nothing goes the way she planned. Hakan Yılmaz, Selen Soyder, Enes Koçak and Eylül Tumbar lead the cast, and Sait Genay plays Hayri Dede.

Emre Kabakuşak and İnci Balabanoğlu Ahıska directed, and Gülbike Sonay Üte and Tuna Kıygı wrote the scripts. The series ran for 27 episodes and ended with the episode broadcast on 4 January 2024, so it stayed on air for about seven months.
