This high school was originally established in Tainan in 1948. It relocated to Kaohsiung in 1950, and by 1956, it had moved to its permanent campus on Sanduo Road.
In 1965, the school expanded with the founding of the International Business College, a junior college that operated until 1990. During its peak years, it was regarded as a prominent private institution in Kaohsiung, producing a large number of notable alumni.
However, due to a series of corruption scandals and faculty disputes, the government eventually ordered its shutdown.
Although the school continued to offer vocational programs for several years, it ultimately closed its doors for good in 2022.
Following its closure, part of the land was sold to Sun Yat-Sen University in Kaohsiung, which plans to establish a medical university on the site. Demolition of the old campus began in April 2025.
In part one, I focused on the cool murals. In part two, I showed some of the campus and classrooms. In this post, I will show some of the graffiti that was done around the school.
When I went here in the summer of 2024, there was little to no graffiti. That definitely changed sometime after that. When I returned in 2025, there were big changes.
The first time I went was in the summer of 2024. This is how the school looked.
How it looked when I returned in the winter of 2025.
Side-by-side comparison of the main building.
COSMO and Patter.
Nearly every classroom had some art in it.
Since it was just a school scheduled for demolition, I had no problem with people graffitiing all over it.
The library.
Happily, the cool murals were left alone. Well, almost. This was the only graffiti that I saw on the murals.
A couple of videos I took of the school.
A bike ride around campus.
So, that’s the end of the school. I will add some whenever the school is totally demolished. Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.
