Edan Lui, Interpol, and yakuza create explosive tension. Stream episodes 1–2 now on Viu.
Taxi Driver 3, the highly anticipated the best Viu Original in 2025, is back with bigger stakes, international crime, and the same satisfying vigilante justice that made Taxi Driver seasons 1 and Taxi Driver 2 a global phenomenon.
Episodes 1–2 are now streaming on Viu, and new episodes drop weekly. This season, the Rainbow Taxi team ventures to Japan to rescue a missing girl entangled in a human trafficking syndicate, where they must navigate yakuza networks, Interpol investigations, and a dangerous undercover game where trust is a luxury they cannot afford.
The Story Begins: A Call From Japan
A mysterious call changes everything. A teenage girl named I Seo reaches out to Rainbow Taxi desperately seeking help—then disappears mid-conversation. With only her name and call history as leads, the team uncovers a deadly “scam game” targeting teenagers, backed by a Japanese loan company operating in the shadows.
The investigation pulls them across borders to Japan, where Kim Do Gi begins his most dangerous undercover mission yet. His goal: infiltrate the yakuza and dismantle the human trafficking ring before more victims are lost.
Meet the Team: Returning Heroes & New Allies
Lee Je Hoon returns as Kim Do Gi, the fearless ex-special forces operative who leads Rainbow Taxi’s operations.
His ability to create convincing alter egos and operate in multiple languages makes him perfect for Japan’s underworld.
Kim Eui Sung anchors the operation as Jang Seong Cheol, the strategic mastermind behind Rainbow Taxi and the Blue Bird Foundation.
He’s the one who takes I Seo’s call and commits the team to this international rescue mission.
Pyo Ye Jin returns as An Go Eun, the tech genius hacker who controls the digital operation, tracking criminal networks and guiding the team through each mission in real time.
Jang Hyuk Jin and Bae Yoo Ram complete the core team as the mechanic duo, building specialized vehicles and joining field operations when needed.
Edan Lui (Hong Kong actor from Mirror) joins as Michael Chang, an Interpol inspector investigating the same human trafficking case.
His involvement creates tension—Do Gi wants street justice; Michael wants official procedure. Their conflicting methods become a core story thread.
Episodes 1–2: The Setup
Episode 1, “A Call From Japan,” establishes the mission.
Rainbow Taxi receives the distress call, uncovers the scam operation, and commits to traveling to Japan.
Episode 2, “A Man Who Trusts No One,” shows Kim Do Gi gaining trust within the yakuza organization.
He proves himself through risky moves, but his plan faces a major complication when Interpol’s Michael Chang appears, demanding cooperation with their official investigation. The tension between Do Gi’s vigilante approach and Michael’s by-the-book tactics becomes immediately clear.
Why Taxi Driver 3 Matters
Taxi Driver has built a reputation as one of Korea’s most compelling revenge-action K-dramas. Season 3 raises the bar by going international.
The series remains rooted in what made it successful: taking victims failed by the system and delivering justice through clever undercover operations, emotional character arcs, and satisfying payback against predators.
