With complex characters and strong emotional depth, the series quickly established a powerful connection with audiences.

“A.B.I.” follows Dogan, a successful surgeon living in Izmir who cut ties with his influential family years earlier after a traumatic incident involving his father, Tahir Hancıoglu. Leaving Istanbul meant leaving behind both his family and his childhood, allowing Dogan to build a life devoted entirely to saving lives. His only remaining link to his past is his younger sister, Melek.

After years away, Dogan returns to Istanbul at Melek’s request to attend his sister Gulusan’s wedding—an event that reopens old wounds and brings long-hidden family secrets to the surface. During this visit, he meets Cagla, a determined young lawyer shaped by the unresolved trauma of her sister, Mahinur. As their paths cross, a deep bond begins to form.

An attempted murder on the wedding night becomes a dramatic turning point, drawing Dogan into a dangerous web of secrets, betrayal, and suspicion—where even members of his own family emerge as possible suspects. Now, Dogan must decide whether to leave once again or stay and confront the dark truth at the center of his family’s legacy.
