The Dating App for Taiwan and the Taiwanese Diaspora
Last updated
Taiwan is one of Asia's most open dating cultures and one of its most connected to the wider Chinese-speaking world. Krush is for people dating across that spread — in Taipei and Kaohsiung, and between Taiwan and the diaspora in North America, Australia, and Southeast Asia.
The local dating scene
Taiwan's dating culture is comparatively relaxed and app-friendly, and Taipei in particular has a large, internationally minded young professional scene. Night markets, coffee shops, and hiking are the default early dates, which makes it easy to meet without much ceremony. Taichung and Kaohsiung run smaller, slower-paced scenes, from Taichung's Fengjia Night Market to Kaohsiung's harbour-front arts district.
The local community
Around two-thirds of Taiwan's population lives in its western urban corridor, from Taipei down through Taichung to Kaohsiung. Taiwan also hosts sizeable Southeast Asian communities and a steady flow of international students studying Mandarin.
Communities
- Taiwanese-American and Taiwanese-Canadian diaspora
- Mandarin-learning international student communities
- Indonesian, Vietnamese, and Filipino resident communities
- Hakka and Indigenous Taiwanese communities
Frequently asked questions
Is Krush a good dating app in Taiwan?
Krush fits Taiwan's cross-cultural dating scene — Taiwanese singles open to dating internationally, diaspora visiting or moving back, exchange students, and long-term foreign residents. Cultural background and languages are part of the profile rather than something you discover later.
Can I meet Taiwanese singles overseas?
Yes. Cross-border matching is a core Krush feature, so you can set your preferences toward Taiwanese singles in the US, Canada, or Australia — useful if you are diaspora yourself, or planning a move.
Do I need Mandarin to use Krush in Taiwan?
No. Language preferences appear on every profile, so you can match with people who share a language with you. Taipei especially has a large bilingual community, and many users are actively practising English or Mandarin.
Which Taiwanese cities does Krush cover?
Krush works across Taiwan, and Taipei has its own page covering local districts, universities, and where people actually meet. People in Taichung, Kaohsiung, and Tainan use the same app, and the high-speed rail along the western corridor makes widening your preferences beyond one city more realistic than in most countries.
Is Krush free in Taiwan?
Yes — free to download and free to start matching on iOS and Android, with optional extras if you want more room to explore.
