Lawyer Li Yusheng of Fidelity Law Firm stated that if the Taiwanese organizers use the official company's artist names or images without official authorization, it may infringe upon the official company's reputation and rights, and could constitute trademark infringement or even copyright infringement for profit, punishable by imprisonment for six months to five years, a fine of NT$200,000 to NT$2 million, and civil liability. Consumers may also face the risk of purchasing counterfeit goods and being unable to return or exchange them, resulting in losses.
