• SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'Exemplary Taxi 3' interview with actor Kim Eui-sung as Jang Sung-chul

Actor Kim Eui-sung expressed his thoughts on actor Lee Je-hoon, who has worked with the true nature of the black curtain theory for more than five years as an "exemplary taxi."

Kim Eui-sung recently held a round interview at a cafe in Gangnam-gu, Seoul to commemorate the end of SBS's Friday-Saturday drama "Model Taxi 3" (written by Oh Sang-ho/directed by Kang Bo-seung).

"Exemplary Taxi 3" is a private revenge act in which the mysterious taxi company Rainbow Transportation and taxi driver Kim Do-ki complete revenge on behalf of the wrongful victim, based on the webtoon of the same name, and was loved a lot as season 1 of 2021 and season 2 of 2023 aired.

The "exemplary taxi" series, which received great love every season, swept the rankings of domestic and international box office indicators, proving the power of the "Super IP Seasonal System." Taxi driver Kim Do-ki (Lee Je-hoon) established himself as a more powerful dark hero, and the end of the villains was even more disastrous. In particular, in "Model Taxi 3", a more three-dimensional story line was established by revealing the past narrative of Jang Sung-chul, or CEO Jang, played by Kim Eui-sung.

Kim Eui-sung has drawn attention whenever the new season is released. In fact, there were doubts that Jang, played by Kim Eui-sung, was a villain who would betray Kim Do-ki, that is, a black screen. It is one of the jokes created by Kim Eui-sung's impressive villain in some works.

"I'm so happy," said Kim Eui-sung, the person in charge of "Black Mask Story," adding, "[Viewers] must be busy digesting only the main character's narrative, but I'm grateful for your interest in me, whether it's a black screen or not, and I'm also grateful that I was in charge of a small fun of watching this drama."

"I really want to betray you someday," he said, drawing laughter.

Regarding the drama, which was a complete "virtue," he said, "It's image washing. It was a very good work to wash the image," he said, causing another round of laughter.

When asked about season 4 at the production presentation, Kim Eui-sung made headlines by tactfully answering, "The life of a 'model taxi' depends on the crucible state of Kim Do-ki."

When asked about next season in an interview, Kim Eui-sung said, "Shouldn't things fit together well. Terrestrial dramas aren't especially easy. I think we were lucky. In fact, the actors implicitly said, "Let's meet again" with their eyes, but I think we've gone to the stage where we don't have to talk."

What was his time with Lee Je-hoon, who lived as Kim Do-ki over the past three seasons. Regarding Lee Je-hoon, Kim Eui-sung said, "He is the person who doesn't change the most, the person who doesn't make mistakes," adding, "I thought I wouldn't quit because of Lee Je-hoon." He is like a pillar of faith," he said, expressing his trust.

He also said, "(Lee Je-hoon) raised a problem with the production team once and established discipline. Seeing him say, "Let's all be responsible," I thought, "I should be careful, too." The sense of responsibility was clearly different," he said, giving Lee Je-hoon a smile by using extreme honorifics.

Some expressed regret that "model taxi 3" has become somewhat looser than in previous seasons. The same was true of the characters.

What is Kim Eui-sung's opinion on this. He said, "Season 1 had the ultimate villain, but didn't season 3 leave only each episode. I think the characters in the play also had an implicit agreement on him," he said.

"At that time, CEO Jang thought it would be right to position the virtue of smoothly encompassing the whole rather than either side of the blade, or as an elder." If the series continues and becomes a story with a different feeling, I think each character will be adjusted. But personally, I think it's important to keep the acting ensemble or their roles, so I don't have any complaints about that," he said.
