Taxi Driver 3 Dominates Weekly Ratings Again, Outshining Rivals with Record-Breaking Viewership

SBS’s powerhouse drama Taxi Driver 3 continues to prove why it’s one of the most talked‑about shows of the season. On December 5, the series entered its third week of broadcast and once again reigned supreme as the most‑watched miniseries of the entire week. Viewers across South Korea tuned in eagerly, cementing the drama’s place at the very top of its time slot.

According to Nielsen Korea, the latest episode achieved an impressive nationwide average rating of 8.9 percent, making it not only the leader in its time slot across all channels but also the highest‑rated miniseries of the week. This milestone underscores the drama’s immense popularity and the audience’s continued investment in its gripping storyline, thrilling action sequences, and charismatic performances.

What makes this achievement even more remarkable is the stiff competition in the same time slot. MBC’s Moon River, a fantasy romance drama that has been steadily building its own loyal fanbase, also aired its latest episode on the same night. Despite going head‑to‑head with the juggernaut that is Taxi Driver 3, Moon River managed to climb in ratings, recording a respectable 6.0 percent nationwide average. This upward trend suggests that while Taxi Driver 3 dominates the charts, Moon River is carving out its own space in viewers’ hearts with its enchanting storyline and emotional appeal.

The ratings battle between these two dramas highlights the diversity of content currently captivating audiences. On one hand, Taxi Driver 3 delivers adrenaline‑pumping justice and action, while on the other, Moon River offers a dreamy escape into romance and fantasy. Together, they showcase the strength of Korean television in offering something for every type of viewer.

With Taxi Driver 3 maintaining its commanding lead and Moon River steadily rising, the coming weeks promise even more excitement in the ratings race. Fans are eagerly waiting to see whether SBS’s hit drama can continue its streak of dominance or if MBC’s fantasy romance will surprise everyone with a breakthrough performance.
