Taxi Driver Season 3 Concludes at the Top, Sparking Season 4 Speculation
Taxi Driver Season 3 ends at the top—winning awards, rankings, and public attention.
From bold political themes to award-season success, the finale left a strong impression on Korean viewers.
The SBS drama Taxi Driver has gone beyond a typical action series, consistently delivering themes of social justice and protection for the underprivileged. Throughout its run, the show has earned strong support from viewers by offering a sense of catharsis through its vigilante narrative.
Lead actor Lee Je-hoon was awarded the Grand Prize (Daesang) at the SBS Drama Awards for his performance in Season 3. The drama also ranked No.1 in the drama brand reputation index, which analyzed 20 major Korean dramas as of January 2026.
The final episode drew particular attention for its creative reinterpretation of recent political turmoil in South Korea. Despite the sensitive subject matter, the episode was praised for maintaining narrative balance and tension without losing its entertainment value.
Meanwhile, Korean television has recently seen a surge in popularity for legal dramas centered on judges and lawyers, reflecting growing public interest in socially driven storytelling.
With cast members, including Lee Je-hoon, hinting at the possibility of Taxi Driver Season 4, attention is now turning to what form of justice—and what kind of story—the next chapter might bring.
