Actress Pyo Ye-jin is drawing strong attention in SBS’s Friday–Saturday drama ‘Taxi Driver 3,’ delivering a standout performance that blends sharp wit with dynamic action.
The episodes aired on December 26 and 27 recorded a nationwide average viewership rating of 14.1 percent, securing the top spot in weekend prime time. The story focused on Ahn Go-eun, the genius hacker of Rainbow Transport played by Pyo, as she orchestrated a calculated operation against a used-goods fraud ring, leading the punishment from both behind the scenes and on the ground.
Pyo heightened the drama’s tension by infiltrating the criminal group, hacking their systems with ransomware, and diverting illegal profits. Her calm, teasing demeanor destabilized the scammers psychologically, keeping viewers engaged throughout the sequence.
The turning point came with a direct confrontation, where Pyo physically subdued the ringleader with a decisive throw, delivering a moment of clear catharsis. The scene marked Ahn Go-eun’s evolution from a technical support role into a hands-on dark hero, while highlighting Pyo Ye-jin’s versatility as an action performer.
By seamlessly balancing composure, humor, and physical intensity, Pyo has become a driving force behind the drama’s momentum, reinforcing her reputation as a reliable lead who anchors both story and ratings.
