As the entire season ranked fifth in overall ratings since 2023, including terrestrial cables, with 21% final ratings, viewers' attention is focused on the return of the MegaIP of confidence.
The first thing that has come off the veil this season is the villain lineup. The released poster features six new antagonists who will pass through season 3 with only silhouettes. Even though he did not reveal his identity, he feels overwhelmed, suggesting that he is a character who will set up a strong confrontation with 'Rainbow Five' in each episode. As the series has made iconic villains every season, from Park Yang-jin and Baek Hyun-jin, the king of illegal videos, to Shim So-young, the mother of Cha Ji-yeon, the voice phishing of the evil godmother, it heralded the appearance of even more powerful villains this time around.
The villains in the poster have different atmospheres. The muscular silhouette with tattoos all over her body exudes a beastly energy, and behind the slender female silhouette, an icy cold momentum spreads, suggesting a new type of villain. It is already a pressing matter of interest to see what crimes the six will shake up Season 3 and which characters will play this character.
Director Kang Bo-seung emphasized that Kim Do-ki's secondary character and action, which change according to various villains, are the key points to watch in the season, and put a lot of effort into building villain characters" he once said. When designing Villan's space, he said he worked carefully for artistic perfection and organized the camera movement concisely and accurately so that the actors' energy was not lost.
Expectations are high on what catharsis will be provided by the gruesome events that the stronger villains will create and the exhilarating performance of rainbow transportation.
