A new movie is going to be rolling into Seoul soon. This movie is called... Tokyo Taxi! This movie is no horror or romance, but a comedy that is sure to get you laughing!
This movie is about a 4-member Japanese band that is having it's debut in Korea. Seeing as how they have to cross a sea to get to Korea they decide to take a plane to Korea like any normal people do. Well everyone is using a plane to get to Korea, everyone but the lead singer Ryo(Yamada Masashi)! Reason being, he is deathly afraid of planes and refuses to even step one foot onto one. To please his fellow band members, he assures them that he will take a water taxi from Tokyo to Seoul. But even with this said, he himself is not pleased at all to leave his favorite ramen shop and one girl who comes there every week behind. Ryo, one day, got packed and left his home to get a water taxi like he had promised his fellow members. But he decided to get a taxi at the wrong time! Yamada(Hajime Yamazaki) is a water taxi diver, and at the very same time Ryo was planning on getting a water taxi, Yamada was running away from his home. Yamada lives by a very firm belief that 'The costumer is king,' agrees to ferry Ryo to Seoul. Once across the sea and docked at Pusan, Ryo, with Yamada, are attacked by a fanfare. With Ryo being a loner and Yamada who after only a little time feels home sick and misses his wife back in Japan, these two learn that they have to rely on, and learn, each other.
