I was traveling with a friend and we were making a round trip between Taipei and Kaohsiung. After comparing the prices of both options, I decided on this one because it was 30% off. While advance train and seat reservations are possible via the app and redeeming the High-Speed Rail tickets within the app, and then booking through the High-Speed Rail official website the day after redemption, I couldn't book adjacent seats in Japan because each person received a separate High-Speed Rail Redeem number (perhaps due to individual pass issuance). In reality, we were able to secure adjacent seats at the station ticket counter the day before, so there were no problems. We also redeemed our subway tickets at the station. I didn't have a chance to use the Taiwan Tourist Shuttle bus, but if you're planning a round trip between Taipei and Kaohsiung (or now Taipei and Tainan), I think it's worth considering. Using it is similar to the 15% discount for foreigners; you show your passport to the station attendant at the ticket gate. Please note that the carriage and seat numbers are handwritten by the station attendant, so they may be difficult to read.
There were two stops along the way, and we received sightseeing information. The snack set was delicious. The train was very clean. The only downside was that since I was traveling with my son, we had to share a seat. Overall, it was enjoyable.
I suggest that the contents of the burger should be customizable, allowing customers to choose between different options. For example, they could change the cola to black tea, or the spicy burger to a non-spicy one. The contents are currently fixed and unchangeable, which is a rigid rule. People are flexible and need more options; a more open approach would be beneficial.
