The South Korean streamer Penguin Sister has been banned from entering Taiwan for three years due to illegal work. She revealed during a live stream that she originally planned to return to Taiwan on the 5th, but was banned from entry due to participating in an event without applying for a work permit, and she won't be able to enter again until 2028. In addition, the American YouTuber Lela FaLi was also banned from entering for similar reasons. The Immigration Department emphasized that Penguin Sister's employment gold card has been revoked, and she may reapply for entry in the future if she meets the conditions.
South Korean streamer Penguin Girl was banned from entering Taiwan for three years in 2023 due to illegal work in Taiwan. Penguin Girl revealed in her livestream that she originally planned to fly to Taiwan on the 5th but was informed that she could not enter, as the ban has recently taken effect and is expected to last until 2028. She mentioned that this may be related to her serving as a one-day store manager for a video game in 2023, for which she did not apply for a work permit. Although she had obtained work permits for other activities she participated in, her gold card was revoked due to her agent's negligence.
The Ministry of the Interior's Immigration Agency has also responded, stating that the Ministry of Labor notified Penguin Girl on March 25th that she was found to have worked illegally in Taiwan by the Labor Bureau of Taipei City Government. Therefore, according to relevant regulations, she is prohibited from entering for a certain period. The Immigration Agency emphasized that if Penguin Girl meets the conditions for the lifting of the restriction in the future, she can reapply.
In addition, Penguin Girl mentioned in her livestream that American YouTuber Lele Pons was also banned from entering Taiwan. Although she holds an employment gold card and was preparing to develop long-term in Taiwan, she was similarly informed that she could not enter upon departure. The Immigration Agency stated regarding Lele Pons' situation that she was penalized by the Labor Bureau of Taipei City Government for illegal work during her visit to Taiwan in 2023, and thus is also prohibited from entering according to regulations.
