Enes Kaya (born August 22, 1984) is a Turkish former television personality in South Korea who currently lives and works in the country as a businessman and trade consultant.[3] He was most known for being a cast member on the talk show Non-Summit.[4][5]
In 2001 Kaya arrived in South Korea to study, at the recommendation of his father, and praised the educational system there.[clarification needed] He spent a year studying Korean at Konkuk University, then went to study at Hanyang University with a scholarship for IT management.[6]
In 2010, he acted in his first movie, Haunters, and then decided not to pursue a full-time acting career. He said that because of his culture and religion, he is selective about the roles he wishes to take. “In Korea, we have a good image. We’re a brother country,” he said of his homeland. "Most important part is, for me, how can I make this image better and better? Because from now on, I’m not just working for myself ― I’m working for my country.” In addition to modeling, Kaya has appeared on Arirang TV, SBS, MBC, and on KBS's Global Talk Show.[6]
In his 2014 appearance on the talk show, Non-Summit, of the eleven male foreigners, who all speak Korean, he is considered the most conservative panelist.[5] He was fired from all of the programs due to his adultery scandal in late 2014.[7] In 2015, Kaya returned to acting in a supporting role for the Korean thriller Perfect Proposal.
