SBS's Friday-Saturday drama 'Taxi Driver 3' (writer Oh Sang-ho / director Kang Bo-seung / produced by Studio S, Group Eight, BN Entertainment) is a private revenge-for-hire drama about the mysterious taxi company Rainbow Transport and taxi driver Kim Do-gi completing revenge on behalf of wronged victims. Episode 13 recorded a peak rating of 15.6%, 13.5% in the Seoul metropolitan area, a 2049 average of 4.6% and a 2049 peak of 5.48%, ranking first among all programs broadcast on Friday and first in its time slot, accelerating toward its climax amid full-throttle popularity.

In episode 13, the 'Rainbow Dark Heroes' Do-gi (Lee Je-hoon), company president Jang (Kim Eui-sung), Go Eun (Pyo Ye-jin), Chief Choi (Jang Hyuk-jin) and Assistant Park (Bae Yu Ram) encountered the notorious crime organization 'Samheungdo Villains' — which sets up crimes to sell to those who want to become criminals — including writer Go (Kim Sungkyu), Seo Hwang (Lee Kyung-young), Sergeant Kim (Ji Dae-han), a fisheries businessman (Yoo Ji-wang) and the female boss (Lee Chae-won).
At the same time, scenes of them disguising themselves as clients to punish villains who sow seeds of evil at home and abroad were depicted spectacularly. Among them, Do-gi barely gained the trust of writer Go (Kim Sungkyu), but new clients were brutally killed before Do-gi's eyes, causing shock and fear. With the perilous and heinous 'Samheungdo Villains' facing off against the 'Rainbow Dark Heroes', attention is focused on whether they will survive and on future developments.
Meanwhile, ahead of episode 14, the 'Taxi Driver 3' team teased an inescapable chase between Do-gi and the 'Samheungdo Villains', heightening interest. In the released stills, Do-gi is shown meeting secretly and urgently with company president Jang, Go Eun and Chief Choi. For a moment, the scene shifts to writer Go, exuding a deadly aura, and the female boss who even draws a shotgun, and a shot captures Do-gi gripping the steering wheel with a grim expression as he tries to escape them, raising viewers' heart rates.
In the released preview for episode 14, Seo Hwang's crazed line "Even if you get hurt, it's still in Samheungdo" is paired with Do-gi desperately pressing the accelerator, and the villains' cars chasing Do-gi's Taxi Driver with roaring engines appear in one angle, creating nail-biting tension. Expectations rise for an unprecedented car-chase action sequence, and intense interest centers on whether 'taxi hero' Kim Do-gi, turned into a rat in a cage, can overcome this life-or-death crisis.
Meanwhile, SBS's 'Taxi Driver 3' will air episode 14 tonight (the 2nd) at 9:50 p.m.
