Controversies
Flag incident
In November 2015, girl group Twice appeared on the show, and Taiwanese member Tzuyu introduced herself as Taiwanese and held the ROC flag alongside that of South Korea. The Japanese flag was also shown, representing the nationalities of the girl group members.
Initially there were no reactions to the incident, but after the Taiwanese-born, China-based singer Huang An took to his Sina Weibo account and accused Tzuyu of being a Taiwanese independence activist.[5] This led to internet users in Mainland China to react angrily towards Tzuyu's actions, accusing her of "profiting from her mainland Chinese audience while holding a pro-independence stance". Soon after, Twice was barred from Chinese television, Tzuyu was pulled out from her endorsement deal with Chinese communications corporation Huawei, and all her activities in China were suspended.[6]
On January 15, 2016, the day before the Taiwanese general election, the CEO of JYP Entertainment, Park Jin-young apologized to Chinese media through his Weibo account, and JYP released a video of Tzuyu reading an apology, which included the statement:
There is only one China, the two sides of the strait are one, and I have always felt proud to be Chinese. I feel extremely apologetic to my company and to Internet friends on both sides of the strait for the hurt that I have caused, and I also feel very guilty.[7]
Effects
As many believed the statement was made under duress, the apology video infuriated the Taiwanese public on election day.[8] The incident gained international attention as it was believed to have affected the 2016 Taiwanese general election, which was won by Tsai Ing-wen and the pro-independence DPP by a wide margin. While the DPP were already leading the polls months prior to the election,[7][9] a survey found that Tzuyu's video apology affected the decision of about 1.34 million young voters, either by swaying them to vote or change their votes.[10] Scholars believe that the incident probably contributed one or two percentage points to Tsai's winning margin.[9]
