On his 57th birthday, Zheng Wencan, the chairman of the Straits Exchange Foundation, was arrested and detained by the Taoyuan District Prosecutors Office on suspicions of corruption. Once a rising star in the Democratic Progressive Party, Zheng's fall from grace began with his failed mayoral handover in 2022, with reports surfacing of his close ties to triad figures like Lin Bingwen. From playing a key role in the Wild Lily student movement to a series of political positions, Zheng's career took a significant turn as controversies, including accusations of involvement with the triads and academic plagiarism, led him to be reassigned to a less prominent role at the Straits Exchange Foundation.
