Lee Je Hoon Talks About his Experience on "Taxi Driver"
The "Move to Heaven" actor plays the role of Kim Do Ki, a former Special Forces officer turned member of the Rainbow Taxi group headed by Jang Sung Chul (Kim Eui Sung.)
Apart from its usual transaction, the group offers a revenge service from victims whom the law failed to protect.
Just like his clients, Do Ki was also a victim of injustice after a psychopath serial killer brutally killed his mother.
Aside from Mr. Jang, Kim Do Ki executes the plan together with his team members Ahn Go Eun (Pyo Ye Jin), who is the resident skilled hacker alongside Rainbow Taxi lead mechanic, Choi Kyung Goo (Jang Hyuk Jin) and his assistant, Park Jin Eon (Bae Yoo Ram.)
In the interview, Lee Je Hoon pointed out that he felt mixed emotions now that "Taxi Driver" has come to an end.
Despite concluding the drama with a soaring viewership rating, it appears that the actor will surely miss their great teamwork and his special bond with his co-actors.
"I finished filming last week, and the last episode was aired last week. Personally, I filmed for a very long time, but after it ended, I feel very sorry. It's because I want to be together more, so I feel like I want to get together again soon," he explained.
Although there are no confirmations yet from SBS or representatives of the show, based on "Taxi Driver" episode 16, it seems that the team might be back for another round of action.
To recall, after the Rainbow Taxi boss hints about the end of their revenge service, the latter part of the episode showed the team welcoming their new member, Prosecutor Kang Ha Na, played by Esom.
