Lee Je-hoon Uncovers Hidden Truths in Military Intrigue on 'Taxi Driver 3'

Lee Je-hoon goes undercover in a military base.

In the 15th episode of SBS's 'Taxi Driver 3', aired on the night of the 9th, Kim Do-gi (played by Lee Je-hoon) embarks on a mission to uncover the truth.

During the episode, Kim Do-gi is shocked to learn about the death of Yoo Seon-ah (played by Jeon So-ni), who was his subordinate during his military service. Yoo Seon-ah had been dishonorably discharged posthumously as a sergeant due to allegations of desertion, weapon theft, and attempted contact with North Korean officials. However, Kim Do-gi, knowing her character, suspects a cover-up.

To uncover the secrets behind Yoo Seon-ah's death, Kim Do-gi discards his phone and applies for military re-enlistment, temporarily leaving Rainbow Transport. He is dispatched to a border military unit under the guise of investigating endangered golden eagle nests for two weeks. To assist him, the Rainbow Transport team infiltrates the base in various disguises.

Jang Sung-chul (played by Kim Eui-sung) poses as a general visiting his son, while Ahn Go-eun (played by Pyo Ye-jin) and Choi Joo-im (played by Jang Hyuk-jin) operate a mobile convenience store. Park Joo-im (played by Bae Yoo-ram) disguises himself as a soldier re-enlisted due to administrative errors, all to support Kim Do-gi's investigation.

Despite being under the watchful eye of Colonel Kim Tae-won (played by Kim Jin-wook), who is suspicious of him, Kim Do-gi meticulously traces Yoo Seon-ah's last movements within the military base.

Kim Do-gi eventually discovers a bodycam video left by Yoo Seon-ah at the 'under the bird's nest' location, a secret spot he had taught her for emergencies. In the video, Yoo Seon-ah leaves a message, "I believe Captain Kim Do-gi will find this," revealing that she sacrificed herself to save her comrades when escape routes were blocked.

Having confirmed the truth, Kim Do-gi sheds tears and vows to restore Yoo Seon-ah's honor and take down those responsible.
