It wouldn’t look as bad without the tacky neon lighting.

Kaohsiung looks like a tacky mainland Chinese city, like it belongs in hainan. Taipei’s building designs (not all) have more sophistication/restraint. Less neon.

Too much nouveau riche development in Taiwan. Seoul looks more sophisticated.

Such a comment shows that you don't understand that Taiwanese cities have different types and play different roles

You don’t seem to consider the difference between office buildings and residences

Most highrise (>100m) buildings in Taipei are for office use, while most highrise (>100m) buildings in Kaohsiung are for residential use.

It’s incredible to judge with neon lights. This is a very strong prejudice.

I have heard some comments from foreigners that Kaohsiung has fewer Chinese-style buildings than Taipei, and it is less like a Chinese city.

I agree with you. There are too many nouveau riche development in Taiwan. I cannot understand why they want Taiwanese-style European building. These buildings just kill my eye.
