Rookie actress Jo Hye-won makes her first challenge in terrestrial dramas through SBS's Friday-Saturday drama Taxi Driver 3.
Jo Hye-won will appear in this work as the trainee Yeon-min, who is about to debut in a girl group. She plans to depict the realistic story of youth struggling with the dark side hidden behind the glamour of the entertainment industry.
Taxi Driver 3 is a drama about the Rainbow Transportation team, a taxi company shrouded in mystery, that carries out private revenge on behalf of unjust victims who are in the blind spots of the law, sharply addressing social issues and gaining great popularity every season as a genre piece.
Jo Hye-won plans to intricately express the complex emotional line of a trainee, where a desperate expectation for her debut coexists with anxiety about the future. In particular, based on her experience as a member of an actual idol group, she is expected to enhance the character's liveliness and reality, increasing the immersion of the drama.
This appearance is receiving more attention as it marks Jo Hye-won's first terrestrial step after signing an exclusive contract with her agency KeyEast. She entered the entertainment industry in 2020 as a member of the girl group Weekly, and has gradually built her acting career by appearing in web films like 3.5 Period and short-form dramas like The Secret Contract of the Bodyguard.
Jo Hye-won, who will blend her stage experience and emotional nuances into her character, is expected to prove her potential as an actress and showcase a more mature acting transformation through Taxi Driver 3.
Episodes 9 and 10 of Taxi Driver 3, featuring Jo Hye-won, are scheduled to air on the 19th and 20th at 9:50 PM on SBS.
