Particular anticipation surrounds her confrontation with the "taxi hero" Kim Do-gi, played by Lee Je-hoon.

A representative from 'Taxi Driver 3' stated, "The upcoming episodes 9 and 10 will target the exploitation, abuse of power, and corruption hidden behind the glamorous success of K-pop." They added, "Actress Jang Na-ra's portrayal, shedding her usual kind and upright image to be reborn as a formidable villain, will be a unique viewing point. We ask for your great anticipation."

'Taxi Driver 3' is a private revenge drama where the shadowy taxi company Rainbow Transport and its driver Kim Do-gi exact vengeance on behalf of victims of injustice. Episode 9 is scheduled to air on Friday, the 19th, at 9:50 PM.
