Liu Yu-rou reported that her lifestyle brand, MYMICHI, has not reached a break-even point after four years and an initial 5 million TWD investment, partly due to product non-compliance with local non-toxic regulations. Similarly, content creator Guaji announced the cancellation of the 8th annual Zouzhong Awards, citing annual costs exceeding 10 million TWD that became too expensive to personally subsidize. In other developments, entertainer Chao-ge addressed the repeated closure of his restaurants, attributing the failures to a lack of business capability and his own health struggles, including emergency surgery for colon cancer. Additionally, a dispute emerged involving Jiang Hou-ren, Liao Jen-chieh, and Chiang Wei-shan regarding the credit for medical assistance provided during cancer treatment. Jiang alleged that the Tong Hsin family provided extensive unpaid support, while Liao disputed claims that a single individual should receive sole credit for the recovery. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-15: Taiwanese entertainers address business failures and medical support disputes Taiwanese entertainer Chao-ge apologizes for business failures and family strain, while a dispute arises between Jiang Hou-ren and Liao Jen-chieh over credit for medical support during a cancer recovery. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/taiwanese-entertainers-address-business-failures-and-medical-support-disputes ### 2026-08-12: Taiwanese entertainers face business and event funding challenges Entertainer Liu Yu-rou discusses her lifestyle brand's financial struggles and regulatory setbacks, while creator Guaji announces the cancellation of the 8th Zouzhong Awards due to insufficient funding. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/taiwanese-entertainers-face-business-and-event-funding-challenges --- Cite as: Taiwanese entertainers face business and personal setbacks.
