During the Legislative Yuan Internal Affairs Committee review on July 7, 2024, a physical altercation occurred between Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) legislator Lin Chuyin and Kuomintang legislator Wang Hongwei. DPP legislator Huang Jie suggested that Wang seek psychological therapy as her violent behavior of repeatedly slapping and causing injuries to Lin revealed a violent tendency. Video footage of Wang's assault on Lin for 15 seconds was shared on social media by Huang, further stating that Lin was left with facial wounds and bloodied chin. Wang defended her actions claiming self-defense and accusing the DPP of instigating the altercation. The incident shed light on the ongoing tensions between political parties in Taiwan's legislature.
