What Happened Before: Episode 13 & 14 Recap
The most recent episodes saw the Rainbow Taxi team take on one of their most complex operations yet. To dismantle a large-scale financial scam, the team changed its usual tactics.
Instead of attacking from the outside, they decided to infiltrate the criminal operation from within. Kim Do-gi went undercover, pretending to be a wealthy investor to gain the trust of the scam’s leaders. Meanwhile, the rest of the team worked to understand how the entire illegal system operated, discovering it used online networks and moved money across international borders.
The team’s plan culminated in a high-stakes maneuver. They staged a fake money handover to create a distraction. During the chaos, Ahn Go-eun used her hacking skills to secretly access and shut down the scam’s main servers. When the criminals realized what was happening, panic broke out, allowing the Rainbow Taxi team to make their escape. The case was finally brought to a close when a hidden reporter exposed the scam to the public.
The Main Cast Returning for the Final Episodes
The core team that fans have followed for three seasons is back for this critical final stretch. The show revolves around the skilled members of the secret vigilante group known as Rainbow Taxi.

- Kim Eui-sung is Jang Sung-chul, the founder and CEO of Rainbow Taxi, who masterminds their operations and runs the charitable Bluebird Foundation.
- Pyo Ye-jin returns as Ahn Go-eun, the brilliant hacker whose technical expertise keeps the team one step ahead of their enemies.
- Jang Hyuk-jin and Bae Yoo-ram round out the core crew as engineers Choi Kyung-gu and Park Jin-eon, the talented mechanics who maintain the team’s vehicles and gadgets.
This season has also introduced new faces that have shaped the story. Actor Park Si-yoon joined the cast in a villainous role during the “Park Da-som” case. Popular stars like Jang Na-ra and Edan Lui have also made special guest appearances, adding more depth to the season’s various cases.
