Alican Peker (aka Can) began his acting journey in Izmir, where he was born, on the west coast of Turkey. He then moved to Istanbul to further advance in his acting career. Before he stood up in front of the camera, he studied at the Department of Sculpture in School of Fine Arts, Dokuz Eylul University. Whilst being a student, Can walked on the podium around the globe: with Italy, Japan, Dubai and Cape Town spearheading. During these years, he also played handball professionally and dribbled the basketball on the court for a while.
