A 13-minute adult video allegedly filmed inside the Kaohsiung Main Public Library has gone viral online, drawing sharp criticism from both authorities and the public. The clip, titled “Library Girl”, was uploaded to a subscription-based platform and is believed to feature a Taiwanese influencer who brands herself as the “Queen of Hips.”
The video reportedly shows scenes of hidden-camera style filming and sexual acts inside the library’s restroom. Once circulated on social media, it quickly sparked outrage over public indecency in a community space meant for families, students, and children.
Police and Library Authorities Respond
The Kaohsiung police confirmed that although no formal complaint has been filed, officers have already started reviewing security footage to identify those involved. If proven true, the act could constitute a violation of Taiwan’s Criminal Code on offences against public decency, which carries penalties of up to one year’s imprisonment. Additional punishment may be applied if the content was produced for profit.
Library officials condemned the incident, stating that such behaviour goes against the rules of conduct within the facility. They announced that they are working closely with the police and will step up surveillance and patrols to prevent similar cases from happening again. “Our library must remain a safe and clean space for reading and study,” a spokesperson stressed.
Rising Influence of Online Adult Creators
The woman at the centre of the scandal has a significant online following, with over half a million Instagram fans and hundreds of thousands more on other platforms. She is known for sharing provocative content, boasting more than 250 videos and 500 photos in her online portfolio.
Observers noted that the case highlights a growing issue: social media personalities pushing boundaries to attract paid subscribers, often at the cost of legality and public order. In Taiwan, this trend has raised debate over how far creators can go before facing legal repercussions.
Authorities are urging the public not to download or share the video, warning that doing so could also breach obscenity laws. For now, the police investigation is ongoing, and the case has become one of the most talked-about social issues in Kaohsiung this week.
