Farya Bethlen

Magnificent Century - Kösem Episode 36

I really wish that the creators had allowed a proper after birth scene of Farya and her Twins. Lots of other female characters got scenes including minor ones like Fatma. Also I doubt I'll ever get over the use of the awful "baby" doll Ayşe had.

This blue and golden dress was first worn by Princess Farya Bethlen in the second episode of the second season of Magnificent Century: Kösem.

The dress can be seen again on Mara Brankoviç in the fourth episode of the first season of Golden Apple: The Grand Conquest.

This Silver dress was worn two times in Magnificent Century: Kösem, First worn on Kösem Sultan in Season 1 Episode 14 (2016) and later worn on Princess Farya Bethlen in Season 2 Episode 8 (2017)

Apologies if you've already answered another ask like this.

But what are your opinions on Murad and Farya in MCK. I hate how boring they are. The worst thing a fictional couple could do ,for me, is be dull, monotonous and annoying. And I feel that way about them. But I would love to know what you think about them as a couple?

I haven't seen the whole of season 2, like I got to about the part where they get married, but let me tell you... They managed to make quite an impression on me. Well, not Farya in and of herself, she's boring as sin, because everything interesting about her gets sacrificed on the alter of her romancing Murat. Which is double the problem it normally would be, because Murat is, and I do not say this lightly, the most trash of the very many very trash men in MC/MCK. I hate him more than Süleyman. More than Ibrahim. More than fucking LÜTFI PASHA. It's unbelievable how thoroughly unable Murat is of not acting like a complete asshole, even towards Farya. ´He belittles her, refuses to hear her out when she sends him a threatening message "for no apparent reason" (read: in such an out-of-character move that you would have to be a complete idiot to not at least ask her, even if you aren't necessarily going to believe her explanation), then steals her birthright, and when she's finally fed up with him and wants to go home... Well, guess what, girlie, you're shit out of luck, Murat doesn't want you to, so you're not gonna. Like, he just straight up kidnaps her??? And because the screenwriter says so, Farya still loves him after everything and none of it is a dealbreaker for her, so she ends up being written as an idiot with no self-respect.

Unlike many people, I don't hate the relationship in concept - warrior sultan falling in love with a warrior princess sounds kinda dope (setting aside the amazing alternate history concept "what if Gabor Bethlen had a daughter, who was supported as a candidate to the throne of Transsylvania by the freaking Ottomans"). Even Farya's eventual lameness wouldn't be such a problem if it wasn't for fucking Murat.

In short, I would summarize this relationship thusly: it's as if someone saw Süleyman's whole thing with Isabella Fortuna and decided it doesn't suck enough, so they added just enough Mustafa and Mihrunissa for their milquetoast flavor to completely ruin the masochistically enjoyable spice of that clusterfuck, but not enough to dull the pain it causes the consumer in the slightest. If that makes sense.
