Think of the Show as John Wick meets Crime Procedural, and a good dosage of Comedy blended into each other.
6 Episodes into the second Season, I would say it's been an okay Season, but it's not in the same league as what the First Season was doing after it's first 6 episodes imo.
I'll spoiler tag a couple of issues that I'm having so far with the Season.
Spoiler: The Season misses Ha-Na, I know that she was controversial within the fandom, but I personally really liked the character a lot, as she brought a different type of POV to the programme that enhanced the quality of the Show in a myriad of different ways, that just isn't there this season.
Her role in the Show was a bit reminiscent of David Palmer's role in the early Seasons of 24, I personally really appreciate the alternative viewpoint to the Action Hero on these Shows.
And yes she was really easy on the eyes too. 
And Spoiler: The Show also misses Baek Sung-Mi's role in the Second Season, she had a lot of entertaining scenes in Season 1, that just aren't necessarily there in Season 2 imo.
And again, she did have a certain sex appeal in a more mature and psychotic kind of way. 
Plus the main villain of this Season has potential, but is barely being used at the moment, but tbf I think that the character will end up being a good character by the end of the Season.
And the characters are still likable, and the humour is still on point.
Another flaw in the Season that I forgot to mention, were the side cases in Season 2 are lacking a little something compared to the First Season's in my view.
Ranting about my problems with the Season aside, I do still think that the Season has it's moments, and I overall still think that there's much worse out there for people to watch.
I'm just a picky bastard.

Season 2 of Taxi Driver definitely has a strong second half of the Season, especially the Black Sun arc, which was based on a real case in South Korea.
I still prefer Season 1, but I definitely feel more positive about Season 2 after finishing it.
