Taiwan votes in crucial elections
                     (重要)

The K-pop dimension(角度、觀點)

Taiwan's election has an unlikely third main protagonist - 16-year-old Chou Tzuyu of South Korean girl band Twice.

unlikely: 不太可能 (因為在選舉中一位在韓國的臺灣藝人變成主角實在很少見，所以用unlikely來形容很適合)
protagonist: 主角

The Taiwanese singer has appeared in a video bowing and apologising (in Mandarin) after being seen waving a Taiwan flag - in a row that has dominated local media coverage.
Chou said she felt "proud to be Chinese" and said there was "only one China" - but many on the island felt she had been coerced into saying sorry.

row: 行為 (row我們比較常看到是當成動詞「划」的意思 EX: row a boat 划船，但是這裡是當成名詞 「行為」)
dominate: 主宰、主導、控制
media coverage: 媒體報導
coerced into: 強迫

Presidential frontrunner Tsai Ing-wen insisted holding a Taiwan flag was "a legitimate expression of national identity", however Beijing's Taiwan Affairs Office said the row was being exploited to "stir up feelings".

legitimate: 合法的
identity: 身分
exploited: 被利用
stir up feelings: 煽動情緒  (stir=攪拌，stir up=煽動)
