The Taipei District Prosecutor's Office investigated the case of Shen Boyang's coercion and confirmed that two Hong Kong nationals paid NT$360,000 to a Taiwan credit reporting agency to monitor their families. Wu Xindai pointed out that this was a transnational suppression and collective coercion of Taiwanese by hostile forces outside the country. He gave examples of Lai Qingde's family and Xiao Meiqin being followed by China when they visited the Czech Republic, emphasizing that Taiwanese subjectivity symbols have become targets.

Hong Kong people Ju Juexian and Lin Qing entrusted Taiwan's credit reporting chief Zheng Yongjin and supervisory committee member Shen Boyang. After the investigation, the Taipei District Prosecutor's Office prosecuted Zheng and others for violating the Personal Data Protection Act, and issued a wanted notice for the main suspect who is a Hong Kong citizen. Taipei City Councilor Ma Yuwen of the Democratic Progressive Party criticized KMT politicians for claiming that Shen Boyang was directing and acting. Now it is confirmed that surveillance is a national security issue. The blue committee overturned and treated national security as a joke, which is shameful and ugly.

Shen Boyang, the Taipei mayoral candidate of the Democratic Progressive Party, was secretly photographed by a credit reporting agency hired by Hong Kong citizens Lin Qing and Ju Juexian. They installed photography equipment in the seat cushion of a motorcycle in front of his home to obtain the images and transmitted them via Telegram. People familiar with the matter pointed out that the two men have a close relationship with Chinese intelligence agencies, and the secretly filmed videos may have flowed into Chinese intelligence agencies.

Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang of the Democratic Progressive Party was attacked by the blue camp for his paper discussing drug harm reduction 12 years ago. Legislator Wu Peiyi said that the attacks were mostly based on false information and even fabricated remarks that he had never published. He also invited Mayor Chiang Wanan for a public debate to clarify anti-drug and anti-drug policies.

The Kuomintang Legislative Yuan caucus held a press conference to question the Democratic Progressive Party candidate Lin Guozhang, who is candidate for Yilan County governor, as a supervisor and shareholder of Aite Advanced Company, which operates semiconductor business in mainland China. It pointed out that he shouted anti-China Taiwan to defraud votes on stage, but profited from Chinese business off the stage. It asked him to publicly explain China's revenue, dividends and supervisor remuneration, and criticized the Democratic Progressive Party for adopting double standards for its own members.

The Times Poll Center surveyed 1,068 people over the age of 20 in Taichung City from October 2 to 4. It showed that DPP candidate He Xinchun's approval rating was 31.3%, six percentage points behind KMT candidate Jiang Qichen's 37.3%. However, He Xinchun's approval rating reached 86%, which was higher than Jiang Qichen's 76.2%. He Xinchun said that it was gratifying to see the lead in appreciation, and said that the trend of support continued to rise.
