PHILIPPINES – Good news for the lovers of dizi (or Turkish drama series) in the Philippines! ETC Channel unveils the second season of the hit Turkish drama series “Endless Love” beginning June 14, Monday.

“Endless Love,” or “Kara Sevda” in its home country, is a popular and award-winning dizi starring Turkish heartthrob Burak Özçivit and prominent Turkish actress Neslihan Atagül as lovers Kemal and Nihan who come from different social backgrounds. The poor boy and rich girl go through very difficult challenges imposed by their situations and families, forcing Nihan to sacrifice her love in order to keep a family secret from being revealed.

In 2020, ETC made a bold move to offer more local content in their mostly English program lineup, first by airing Filipino movies and then by presenting Turkish series dubbed in Tagalog by way of the ETCerye primetime block.
