Inside ‘Your Personal Taxi’: The Heartfelt Webtoon Adaptation You Can’t Miss
Your Personal Taxi is based on the beloved webtoon by Lee Mose, who is known for writing lovely stories that revolve around music. This upcoming drama will likely capture the same heartwarming feelings.
Your Personal Taxi follows the story of a taxi driver who only does pre-booked rides. As he drives you, he is playing your favourite songs. As he plays those songs you are not only hearing the songs but also uncovering the personal stories of each rider, which often may remain concealed.
This is a unique combination of human music drama and also something of slice-of-life, ultimately being a very warm and emotional, even therapeutic, type of drama.
