Many people in Taiwan travel to other counties by taking the Taiwan Railways or High Speed Rail. Recently, a netizen was surprised to find out that the new Taiwanese Self-Improvement Express Train (EMU 3000) takes 7 hours and 5 minutes to travel from Banqiao, New Taipei to Kaohsiung. It was later realized that the original poster had actually booked the East Coast Line, which requires circumnavigating half of Taiwan to reach Kaohsiung, resulting in the longer journey. The post sparked discussion and humor online, with users suggesting ways to pass the time during the extended trip.
