Recently, a publishing company released a book featuring LEGO recreations of world-famous landmarks. To attract attention, they also displayed large-scale LEGO works themed around well-known Taiwanese sites. This time, the exhibit at Songshan Xinyi Eslite Bookstore’s 3rd floor featured the Presidential Office Building. Many visitors were initially drawn to the massive LEGO models of the Presidential Office and Jingfu Gate, but upon closer inspection, they noticed the integration of current events—a truck crashing into the building. This sparked discussions, with comments like “This is quite interesting” and “So funny!” as people took out their phones and cameras to snap photos.

Mr. Li is also the curator of the “Taiwan Railways 125th Anniversary: Classic Taiwanese LEGO Train Stations Exhibition,” and his creative efforts in combining LEGO with famous Taiwanese landmarks have garnered much acclaim from LEGO fans.
