South Korean girl group FANATICS member Yoon Do-yi recently traveled to Penghu with Taiwanese member Lee Jia-yi. The two visited a restaurant called "A-Jia Oysters" intending to dine there, but were met with sarcastic and mocking remarks from the owner. After a video of the incident was released, it quickly sparked heated discussions online.
Following the public outcry, the Penghu County Government discovered that the restaurant had not registered for a business license. An official letter was issued ordering the business to cease operations, and its business permit was revoked. In response, the restaurant owner tearfully asked during an interview, “Did I commit a crime or do something illegal?”
In a video uploaded to YouTube, Yoon Do-yi documented the incident, showing her and Lee Jia-yi dining at "A-Jia Oysters" one evening. While trying to understand the restaurant’s ordering process, they were repeatedly ridiculed by the owner. He muttered, “You’re making money in Taiwan—don’t pretend you don’t know how things work,” and even remarked, “If relations between South Korea and Taiwan weren’t good, why would I even bother with you?”
After the video went viral, many netizens flooded the restaurant’s Google reviews with one-star ratings. As the controversy grew, Penghu County Magistrate Chen Kuang-fu publicly apologized. The county government’s investigation confirmed that "A-Jia Oysters" had been operating without commercial registration, and thus ordered the business to shut down and revoked its operating license.
As for the incident itself, the restaurant owner claimed that he had been preparing to close for the night and was no longer accepting customers, but decided to make an exception because the pair had made a special trip by taxi. He emphasized that the visitors started livestreaming without asking first, and noted that both spoke fluent Chinese—suggesting they had lived in Taiwan for some time and should have understood local customs. He felt disrespected that they showed up without a reservation.
Faced with the forced closure, the owner, his eyes red and voice trembling during an interview, said: “I got 4 to 5 million views online—was that good or bad for Penghu? Think about it yourselves. Did I commit crimes or break the law? They took a joke seriously. The county killed its own. This is outrageous. This ugly face of mine—people just want to see it. Isn’t that a good thing for Penghu?”
In response, Magistrate Chen Kuang-fu stated in an interview that the county government acted in accordance with the law after receiving public complaints.
