The crooked waist mailbox is a crooked mailbox with two signboards dropped by Typhoon Sudil in Zhongshan District, Taipei City, Taiwan, which has attracted great attention from the public because of its cute shape. Later, in response to the public's demands, Chunghwa Post agreed to consider retaining the crooked mailbox and further developing it into an alternative attraction in Taipei. Considering the safety and traffic conditions of the surrounding people, it was decided to relocate the crooked waist post box to the Taipei Post Office. However, the planned move was opposed by many people, and former Minister of Culture of the Republic of China, Long Yingtai, criticized Chunghwa Post for not understanding its value. After that, Chunghwa Post postponed the relocation work in response to the opinions of the public, and planned to discuss it with experts and scholars.
