===Popular culture=== [[Karaoke]] is extremely popular in Taiwan, where it is known as KTV.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://taiwantoday.tw/news.php?unit=12,29,33,45&post=23421|title=KTV: A Space for Sharing|website=taiwantoday.tw|date=1 June 2011}}</ref> KTV businesses operate in a hotel-like style, renting out small rooms and ballrooms according to the number of guests. Many KTV establishments partner with restaurants and buffets to form all-encompassing and elaborate evening affairs. Tour busses that travel around Taiwan have several TVs, primarily for singing karaoke. Taiwan has a high density of 24-hour convenience stores, which provide services on behalf of financial institutions or government agencies, such as collection of parking fees, utility bills, traffic fines, and credit card payments.<ref>{{cite journal|author=American Chamber of Commerce in Taipei |author-link=American Chamber of Commerce in Taipei |title=Convenience Stores Aim at Differentiation |journal=Taiwan Business Topics |volume=34 |issue=11 |url=http://www.amcham.com.tw/publication_topics_view.php?volume=34&vol_num=11&topics_id=558 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080516161020/http://www.amcham.com.tw/publication_topics_view.php?volume=34&vol_num=11&topics_id=558 |archive-date=16 May 2008 }}</ref> Chains such as [[FamilyMart]] provide clothing laundry services in select stores,<ref>{{cite web|title=FamilyMart rolls out laundry service in Taiwan |url=https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/3624427|website=Taiwan News|date=24 January 2019}}</ref> and tickets for [[Taiwan Railways Administration|TRA]] and THSR are available at [[7-Eleven]], FamilyMart, [[Hi-Life (convenience store)|Hi-Life]] and {{ill|OK (convenience store)|zh|OKθΆ ε|lt=OK}}.<ref>{{cite web|date=5 December 2011|title=TRA tickets collectable at stores |url=https://www.taipeitimes.com/News/taiwan/archives/2011/12/05/2003519985|website=taipeitimes.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=ε°η£ι«ι΅ Taiwan High Speed Rail|url=https://en.thsrc.com.tw/ArticleContent/30125956-5176-4d8c-af61-f1984f2133a4|access-date=5 April 2021|website=en.thsrc.com.tw|language=en}}</ref>
