The new SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'Taxi Driver 3', airing next month, is based on a webtoon of the same name. The series follows the mysterious taxi company Rainbow Transport and its driver Kim Do-gi, who seeks revenge on behalf of wronged victims. The previous season, 'Taxi Driver 2', concluded in April 2023.
The 'Taxi Driver' series has been a hit, ranking 5th in viewership ratings (21%) among all domestic terrestrial and cable dramas aired since 2023. It also won the Best Drama Series award at the 28th Asian Television Awards (ATA), Asia's most prestigious media awards, last year.
The release of the script reading session for 'Taxi Driver 3' has captured attention. Present at the session were writer Oh Sang-ho, who crafted the series' universe, and the main cast members, including Lee Je-hoon (Kim Do-gi), Kim Eui-sung (Jang Representative), Pyo Ye-jin (Go-eun), Jang Hyuk-jin (Choi Supervisor), and Bae Yoo-ram (Park Supervisor).
Lee Je-hoon expressed his excitement, saying, "I'm so grateful and happy to be able to do Season 3. I'm proud of our members who feel like family. I think we can show an even more intense story than the previous seasons. I'm also preparing various new personas. I really want to show them to the viewers soon. Please look forward to the activities of Kim Do-gi and the Rainbow Transport team."
'Taxi Driver 3' premieres on November 21.
