Anticipation Builds as 'Taxi Driver 3' Nears Finale: The Search for Kim Do-gi Begins

Lee Je-hoon has vanished, prompting Kim Eui-sung, Pyo Ye-jin, Jang Hyuk-jin, and Bae Yoo-ram to embark on a mission to find 'Kim Do-gi.'

SBS's Friday-Saturday drama 'Taxi Driver 3' follows the secretive taxi company Rainbow Transport and its driver Kim Do-gi as they deliver justice on behalf of wronged victims. With only two episodes left until the finale, the 14th episode achieved a peak viewership rating of 18.5% and a metropolitan area rating of 15.1%, dominating its time slot and Saturday mini-series rankings. It also topped the January 1st week Fundex buzz survey in the TV-OTT drama category and the TV-OTT integrated cast buzz category.

The upcoming 15th episode, airing on the 9th, will feature the final revenge mission of the 'Rainbow Dark Heroes' set against a military backdrop. Do-gi (played by Lee Je-hoon), who was a special forces officer before joining Rainbow Transport, has applied to return to his unit and subsequently disappeared, heightening anticipation for the final episode.

The released stills show the 'Rainbow Dark Heroes'—Jang Representative (Kim Eui-sung), Go-eun (Pyo Ye-jin), Choi Supervisor (Jang Hyuk-jin), and Park Supervisor (Bae Yoo-ram)—putting their heads together to find the missing Do-gi. The worried expressions of Jang Representative, Go-eun, and Choi Supervisor add to the tension.

Particularly intriguing is Park Supervisor's tearful re-enlistment. Previously, Park Supervisor has been willing to take on any role in Do-gi's plans, even if it meant being the 'punching bag.' His determination to find Do-gi leads him to re-enlist, showcasing his self-sacrificing spirit that evokes both laughter and tears. However, soon after his neat military entry, Park Supervisor is seen crawling under a military truck in tears, sparking curiosity about the hardships he will face this time.

Why did Do-gi disappear alone? Will the 'Rainbow Dark Heroes' be able to track down his whereabouts? All eyes are on the final episode of 'Taxi Driver 3.'
