Anyone take a dive into Black Money Love from Turkey on Netflix?

30. I see you are thoroughly enjoying the 2nd view

I originally thought the same thing about Elif giving up everything the way she wanted Omer to, but in reality, she did not give up doing the thing she loved:jewelry making and design. It's debatable how much wealth she gave up since the firm was falling apart in bankruptcy already. Of course, starting the book store together was a new direction for them both.

Perhaps it was just a part of their own little sparring game, but I was annoyed when, at the final proposal, Elif essentially said "you had me when you came to the door, but I wanted to make you work for it" It sounded a bit sadistic/cruel, but like you said, he came up with a twinkle in his eyes after visiting the Golden Palace, and was forever smitten.

As for Ege, it is amazing to have someone show up in the final episode and be so memorable. He was quite the empath and free spirit.

When Omer showed up late to the wedding and simply says he received a sign about why he's in law enforcement, I felt that was a signal for Elif to ask about it, but she didn't even bat an eye and just ignores it for her own complaint even though it should have been part of the discussion. I guess there are some things where discussion only blurs the resolve and it's time to fish or cut bait.

I too, am wondering how the culture war of Erdogan vs. the little economic engine of media exports will play out. I wish them well, but the regressive forces are out in full around the world.
