The storm over the detention of former Taipei Mayor Ko Wenzhe continues to spread, not only affecting the political situation, but also the arts and cultural circles are unexpectedly swept away by the typhoon! In April, Ko participated in the cross-border musical "Taking the Trash". However, Ko has been detained by the Taipei District Court and is unable to participate in the performances at Zhongshan Hall in Taichung Central on the 14th and 15th. Time has announced full refunds. Tour leader Xie Nianzu said on the 6th that the number of refunds is still increasing cumulatively, mainly from Taipei Ke fans. However, due to the sudden incident, the detailed amount is not yet clear.

Xie Nianzu said that Ke Wenzhe is a special guest, and directly deleting this plot will have no impact, and he does not plan to find someone to replace him. It's just a coincidence that in this play, Ko Wenzhe plays the "Mayor of Taipei", and the content is also about "Du Geng" (urban renewal).

Xie Nianzu and actors Xia Yutong and Lu Shaoqi who participated in "Taking the Trash" attended the rehearsal press conference of the new musical "The Great Painting Zhaojun: Watching the Wild Geese" on the 6th. They said that it was the first time they encountered this situation and they were very shocked.

Xie Nianzu said that when Ke Wenzhe was detained and banned, he contacted the People's Party. "They were also very sorry. I originally wanted to say that I could escape in the first round; many viewers left messages saying that they were sad and depressed." "We will target Because the audience who bought the tickets for Ke Wenzhe will be fully refunded, this is what we should do. "

At first, artist Lai Peixia helped Ke Wenzhe participate in the performance. Xie Nianzu said that he had not yet contacted Lai Peixia, "We are all rehearsing and are very busy. He also admitted that he never thought he would face this situation, "We watch a lot of political commentary programs. This matter is too complicated. It is a pity that we can't perform it as rehearsed now." We haven't met each other since then. Xie Nianzu said that Ke Yan's content was about "duo update", and we didn't expect such a coincidence.
