Similarly, Kara Sevda received the special jury award at the Seoul International Drama Awards[8] in Korea, where the director Hilal Saral and Burak Özçivit, one of the leading actors, traveled to collect the award.
Four years after the end of Kara Sevda, the series was awarded as „The Best International Soap Opera” in the Soap Awards France 2021.[9] Burak Özçivit and Neslihan Atagül were the only Turkish actors nominated for „Best International Actor” and „Best International Actress” respectively.[10][11]
According to Can Okan, founder and CEO of Inter Medya, the international distributor of the series, „words are useless when talking about the success of Kara Sevda”.[12][13] The novel has become the most watched Turkish series in the world,[14] being broadcast in more than 110 countries with successful audiences and has been translated into more than 50 languages. Some countries where it has been broadcast are Turkey, Russia,[13] Greece, Hungary, Morocco, France, Serbia, Romania, Germany, Iraq, Slovakia, Ukraine, Albania, Spain, Iran, Mexico, Bolivia, Panama, Uruguay, Ecuador, Slovenia, South Africa, Paraguay, and the Philippines among others.
In its broadcast in the United States through Univision, it became the most watched foreign soap opera in the entire history of the country and the Turkish series with the highest audience, surpassing its main competitors. The love story remains the most watched fiction in Hispanic prime time with more than 2 million viewers every day and close to 4 million in its final episode,[15] something that no other series has achieved. Currently, Kara Sevda remains the most watched Turkish series in the United States.
Such has been the overwhelming success of the series that in the Wax Museum of „Tashkent City Park” in Uzbekistan, two figures of Kemal and Nihan are exhibited,[16] the main characters of the series, in the part dedicated to Istanbul.
Kara Sevda’s YouTube channel accumulates almost 3 billion views, being one of the most viewed Turkish series on this platform.[17]
