'''Taiwanese Wave''' or '''Tairyu''' ({{lang-ja|]; Tairyū}}) is a ] originally coined in ] to refer to the increase in the popularity of ] in the country (including: ]s, ], ], ], ]), and to distinguish it from the ] co-existing in Japan.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cpopaccess.com/2010/02/rainie-yang-releases-japanese-version.html|title=Rainie Yang releases Japanese version of "Youth Bucket" that fans do want|last=Pauli|publisher=CpopAccess|date=2010-02-02|accessdate=2013-07-07|quote=The English-based Kpop blogosphere has made it known to western fans of the huge popularity of Kpop over in Japan, but what has not been reported is that Kpop is actually only one of two popular trends going on over in the land of the rising sun.

==History==
Towards the turn of the 21st century, despite the early success of the ''Hallyu''-wave, there was an equally noticeable growth in cultural imports from ], which, like South Korea, is also one of the ]. The spread of Taiwanese popular culture occurred slightly earlier, before the ''Hallyu''-wave was known in Asia. In 2001, the Taiwanese drama ''"]"'' was released and soon attracted audiences from all over the region. It became the most-watched drama series in ] television history,<ref name="hollywoodasia">{{cite web|last=Celdran|first=David|title=It's Hip to Be Asian|url=http://pcij.org/imag/Society/asian.html|publisher=PHILIPPINE CENTER FOR INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM|accessdate=19 March 2013|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20131223110811/http://pcij.org/imag/Society/asian.html|archivedate=23 December 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref> garnered over 10 million daily viewers in ] alone,<ref>{{cite web|last=Celdran|first=David|title=It's Hip to Be Asian|url=http://pcij.org/imag/Society/asian2.html|publisher=PHILIPPINE CENTER FOR INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM|accessdate=19 March 2013|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20160628125022/http://pcij.org/imag/Society/asian2.html|archivedate=28 June 2016|url-status=dead}}</ref> and catapulted the male protagonists from the Taiwanese boyband ] to overnight fame.<ref>{{cite web|last=Kee-yun|first=Tan|title=Welcome back pretty boys|url=http://news.asiaone.com/News/Latest%2BNews/Showbiz/Story/A1Story20130215-402353.html|publisher=]|accessdate=19 March 2013}}</ref> Their popularity spread throughout ], including ], ], ], ], ], ], ], ], ] and ]. With their success, many other Taiwanese ]s emerged around this time, such as 5566, ] and ]. In 2002, a ] journalist described the members of ] as previously unknown actors who have "provoked hysteria across Asia" as a result of the success of ''"Meteor Garden"''.<ref>{{cite web|last=Hewitt|first=Duncan|title=Taiwan 'boy band' rocks China|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/1998138.stm|publisher=]|accessdate=19 March 2013}}</ref> The popularity of ''"Meteor Garden"'' (an adaptation of the Japanese ] series '']'' by ]) can be attributed to these two factors:

* Emotional engagement of the audience with particular emphasis on forging an emotional bond with the protagonist
* Explicit attention to female sexual desires&nbsp;— Departing from conventional dramas that tend to eroticize the female body, ''"Meteor Garden"'' markets the sexual attraction of the male actors (as played out by the Taiwanese idol group ]), giving women a certain freedom of sexual expression.<ref>{{cite book|last=Ying Zhu|title=TV China|year=2009|publisher=]|pages=100}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|last=Heryanto|first=Ariel|author-link=Ariel Heryanto|title=Popular Culture in Indonesia: Fluid Identities in Post-Authoritarian Politics|year=2008|publisher=]|pages=105}}</ref>
]]]

As a result of the success of ''"Meteor Garden"'', its sequel ''"]"'' was gradually released into many Asian countries as well, before the source material was later adapted by networks in Japan, South Korea, and China respectively.

In 2002, the ] ''"]"'' became the first of its kind to equal the success of ''"Meteor Garden"'', attracting a ] in Asia with sales of Winter Sonata-related products such as DVD sets and novels surpassing US$3.5 million in Japan.<ref>{{cite news|last=Lee|first=Claire|title=Remembering ‘Winter Sonata,’ the start of hallyu|url=http://nwww.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20111230000497|newspaper=]|accessdate=26 December 2012}}</ref>

Since 2002, television programming trends in Southeast Asia began to undergo a drastic change as TV series from South Korea and Taiwan filled the slot originally reserved for Hollywood movies during ].<ref name="hollywoodasia"/> Although dramas from South Korea gradually overtook those from Taiwan, much of Asia still had their eyes focused on Taiwanese bands such as ], ] and ]. The breakthrough for ] came with the debut of ], ]<ref>.''Allkpop''. Retrieved 2013-07-18.</ref> and ], the latter hailed by the ] as a household name in the region.<ref>{{cite web|last=Williamson|first=Lucy|title=South Korea's K-pop craze lures fans and makes profits|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/13191346|publisher=]|accessdate=19 March 2013}}</ref>

By the late 2000s, many Taiwanese music acts could no longer catch up with their K-pop counterparts. Although a number of Taiwanese bands such as ] and ] continued to retain a small but loyal fan base in Asia, teenagers and young adults from all over the world were much more receptive to K-pop bands such as ] and ], both of whom have managed to attract a huge number of fans from ], parts of ], the ], and more recently, the ].

==In Japan==
] is actually only one of two popular trends going on over in ], and the other trend is Taiwanese pop (sung in Mandarin).
