Taxi Driver Season 3

Taxi Driver 3

This is my first time following an ongoing drama that's already been running for three seasons. It feels like there's a curiosity that's hard to express. Theorizing together and guessing the ending is truly that exciting.

From the first case to the finale, the execution this time is truly satisfying. The Rainbow Taxi team executes the villains according to their portion, even without hesitation, burying them alive.

The second case that I think is very good is placed at the beginning, where the chemistry between Kim Doki and Matsuda Keita is seen. It builds the interest of many people and makes them crazy about their chemistry. Matsuda's dialogue about not having friends to send food photos to is relatable to many people, and that's what makes this villain hard to hate, but nevertheless they can't be justified. Also, the most interesting case this time is in episodes 12-14, where Kim Sung Kyu plays the villain. Although they seem almost on par with the Rainbow Taxi team, they're actually nothing. The epic scene: one taxi can blow up four cars at once, and there's a truck in there? I think that's absolutely insane.

And today is the end of Taxi Driver. I don't want to leave because each episode has a different case. This drama must continue until season 1999, 1738, 29??? Basically, Taxi Driver is one of the many dramas with a different case, each episode is a must-watch. You all must watch it ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Not disappointed at all: taxi driver ss3 deserves it all

Definitely IN LOVE with this season. The easy portrayal that the actors has given us throughout the whole series is just 10/10. Did have, kinda, not high expectations due to normally the series who have many seasons end up getting just bad and hard to watch, but this series (all three season) didn't disappoint me at all and will rewatch all three seasons soon with my boyfriend (have to educate him lol)! I felt so much throughout the whole series, just as if it happened to me, and enjoyed more than anything the creative ways to get revenge lol, was excited to see new episodes every single time I finished one. Definitely a watch in my opinion and totally time worthy! :)

Thoughts about the last episode

I already wrote an overall review about the full series (You can find it as a review to "Taxi Driver"1), but I wanted to say some things about the finale of the third season in particular.
SPOILER
I read that some people were disappointed in how things were solved for the last case. The story of the last client is really tricky and intense, so seeing that everything get solved with unconventional ways and humor, might look confusing, but I'd like to share my point of view since I actually found it genius.
First of all, I'd like to compliment the production and all the cast and people who worked in this for their bravery. For the finale they chose to dedicate A LOT of minutes of the episode to a character that the public has never seen and they do it to narrate something really important and not so distant from a recent reality: the danger of the martial law
When I understood the direction that the episode was taking I really found it genius, I honestly had chills. All the actors did an amazing job and this case also showed us the deep bond between the characters even when they are separated and don't have a plan to follow from the beginning
About the resolution of the case, I actually think it's so beautiful because I saw in it a reference (even if of course really simplified) to what happened in South Korea in December 2024. I remember reading the news and as an outsider I was so impressed by the union that the citizens showed to defend their freedom.
At that time another thing that really moved me, was seeing how so many different people were gaining courage and strength from music. Seeing everyone standing in the cold, after a long day at work or school, fighting for their rights, waving their lighsticks, putting asides differences and fanwars and singing the same song, shook my heart.
So when I saw in the last episode, all those clients that we've met in previous cases come together to join Elements concert, I felt so moved by the reference. Music and artists can really be a light of hope during uncertain times
Also, talking about Elements case, we can see that Girls' Generation's songs get used more than once and have a deep meaning for the characters (and for example "Into the New World" by Girls' Generation was one of the main songs symbol of the protest)
I found it was a beautiful episode in honor of the korean citizens that keep on protecting their country and their freedom using modern solutions.
I also think the decision to take a lighter approach was to say goodbye to the series and the Taxi Driver family with a smile

I really loved this series, I'm so happy I decided to watch it and to do it till the end. I highly recommend it!

Sorry for my english, it's not my first language

Love this drama

May contain bit spoilers.

The acting within acting from Driver Kim is amazing. The husky voice he always does is amazing.
Actually the whole rainbow 5 crew is amazingly talented.

The story about human trafficking is very interesting and good.
Finally a drama that mention this and how horrific this is that it exists.
Also it’s very amazing they put everything that’s related to that in this season.
The scamming, trafficking, gambling etc.

Actor Lee Je-hoon is multi talented.
This series has shown it by the multiple characters he played during undercover missions.

….
I miss the oldtimer taxi where the Taxi Driver series started with. The second model (s2)was alright. But the new taxi is ugly and to modern. Doesn’t fit with the vibe and music and the series.

P.s. the English speaking cops/detectives are a misfit in the first episodes. But I understood he is from HongKong.
May explain it a bit.
But it doesn’t fit in the drama and the dialect is heavy.
There were moments they spoke Japanese and joked “so you do speak Japanese?!”😅

The ending was nerve wracking and the fight got me hooked to the screen.
It played with my heartstrings.

It’s sad to see this series come to an end.
I’ve binged it from season 1-3 by rewatching season 1-2 after each other.
Good it’s now freezing and snowing outside.
Good excuse to stay inside in the evenings and weekends.

——
I would definitely rewatch it, but that will be after 5 or more years.
It’s to good to not rewatch it to soon and to often. To keep the good feelings about this series.

I’ll miss the rainbow 5 for sure.

Favourite Kdrama

Taxi Driver season 3 is literally my favourite kdrama and it’s so underrated it hurts. Istg more ppl need to know about this kdrama .Go-Eun was EVERYTHING ,seeing her give the villain a taste of his own medicine while teasing was so satisfying. Her fits are always fire too. I remember tho when Kim Do-Gi ran the guy over twice with his car in their Kpop case ,Brutal. The fight scenes are some of the best I’ve ever seen in any kdrama. Only thing is Mr Jang’s friend’s case dragged sooo much and got boring and took 4 eps. But fr, this show deserves way more hype.

Its Season 3 AND THEY ARE BACK WITH A BANG!!

Its Season 3 and Taxi Driver is still going STRONG!! Absolutely loving it!

I'm just so glad they have kept all of the original team 😊 I can't imagine Taxi Driver without them!

No clue how they packed so much into the first 2 episodes!! Japan trip, Yakuza, adultery, slavery and everything in between! They really said we're going BIG!

And omg Lee Jee Hoon in that white costume and white shoes and speaking Japanese in that deep voice! Whew!! Its getting HOT 🔥 in here!!!
Never knew the guy was fluent in English and Japanese!
I'm LOVING IT!!

10/10 Rewatch!!

Thank you guys..

They came back strong and offered us shocking moments with Japanese air..🚕 The only series that I can watch knowing in advance that it would not disappoint me..The season 3 will be the best because the topic that the incredible team has focused on is very sensitive, and exists in many countries with the protection of the authorities unfortunately...I love their chemistry, their energy, their positive aura and of course their amazing performances that take your breath away...💜
Lee Je Hoon , Pyo Ye Jin, Kim Eui Sung, Jang Hyuk Jin, Bae Yoo Ram...You are number one.👌👌

Its BAAAACCCKK!!! Final Edit 1/10/26

Its pretty rare when Kdramas we really like get a second run let alone a 3rd. This is picking up where it left off. Only one in and I am absolutely loving it. His characters when going undercover have me dying in laughter. I didn't know if anything would top his country boy hick character from season 2 but I bit tongue laughing at his second persona of the episode. 😖 I think this is going to do well!!

Edit 12/28
Yeah.....this has been solid. I'd even wager it's safe to say this could merit a 4th run. It's not always about the baddies being put away or the dystopian social injustice issues they're doing their best to recompense. For me now, it's pretty much about what type of persona our guy here will adopt in taking them down. Which is why given the creativity we've seen through the entire drama run, that 4th or 5th run could actually become reality. In any case, the drama has rocked once again, if it has to end that's ok. Better to end strong.

Edit 1/10/26
Phenomenal drama as always. Last two episodes I was blown away because we finally got a good fat huge chunk of Driver Kim's back story as the case was directly tied to him. So yea, this could have a 4th run but this ended STRONG. Maybe it's best not to jeopardize it. But in any case, I loved it. 🥰

This season is pure MADNESS???..in the best way

Seriously, this drama is insane — even better than Season 2 🤣. As expected, Season 3 does NOT disappoint at all. Episode 1 alone already had me shocked, amazed, and totally speechless. No wonder the ratings shot up instantly… it truly deserves it.

The action is intense, the comedy is on point, and there are even touching moments that hit you out of nowhere. Lee Je Hoon is absolutely PERFECT as Kim Do Gi — he carries the character so flawlessly that I can’t imagine anyone else doing it better.

And honestly… about Keita Matsuda, the Japanese boss ...I kinda feel sorry for him 😂. He’s evil, yes, but also weirdly lonely. His chemistry with Do Gi was so good that I even imagined a plot twist where Do Gi joins forces with Keita to become villains together and quits the Rainbow Taxi team hahahaha.

Anyway, I seriously can’t wait for the next episodes. I’m confident this will be the best drama to close the year. Kudos to the entire cast and crew for delivering such an amazing masterpiece.

Highly, highly recommended! 🔥🎬💛
