Taiwan in Own Asiavision Song Contest 25

Taiwan participated in the Own Asiavision Song Contest 25 with the song "Nude Model" written by April Red and Chiu Pi. The song was performed by the duo April Red. In addition to participating in the contest, the Taiwanese broadcaster Taiwan Television (TTV) also hosted the Own Asiavision Song Contest after winning the competition in the twenty-fourth edition with the song "Limelights" performed by G5SH featuring Lily. Internally selected by Taiwanese broadcaster Taiwan Television (TTV) to represent the nation at the twenty-fifth edition in Kaohsiung, "Nude Model" was presented as the Taiwanese entry during the Chinese New Year's Eve television special Super Star.

As the host country, Taiwan qualified to compete directly in the final of the Own Asiavision Song Contest. Performing in position 25 during the final, Taiwan placed thirteenth out of the 26 participating countries with 99 points.

Background
Prior to the twenty-fifth edition, Taiwan, officially the Republic of China, had participated in the Own Asiavision Song Contest sixteen times since their debut in the first edition. Taiwan has won the contest on two occasions: in the eighth edition with the song "Why Not Love" performed by Rosie Yang and Ryan Yu, and in the twenty-fourth edition with the song "Limelights" performed by G5SH featuring Lily. Since the introduction of semi-finals in the twelfth edition, Taiwan has, to this point, managed to qualify to the final ten times, including three top ten results: in the twelfth edition with Diana Wang and "Home" placing second, in the seventeenth edition with Lin Jia Yin and "Run" placing fourth, and in the twenty-fourth edition with the song G5SH featuring Lily and "Limelights" placing first. Since returning to the contest in the twenty-second edition, Taiwan managed to qualify to the final in all of the editions it has participated in.

The Taiwanese national broadcaster, Taiwan Television (TTV), broadcasts the event within Taiwan and organises the selection process for the nation's entry. Taiwan has used various methods to select the Taiwanese entry in the past, such as internal selections and televised national finals to choose both the song and performer to compete at Own Asiavision. From the twenty-fourth edition and onwards, TTV held an internal selection to choose the artist and song to represent Taiwan at the contest, a procedure that continued for their entry in the twenty-fifth edition.

Internal selection
TTV announced on 10 December 2020 that the Taiwanese entry for the Own Asiavision Song Contest 25 would be selected internally. The broadcaster opened a submission period in order for interested artists and composers to submit their songs until 10 January 2021. Songwriters of any nationality were able to submit songs as long as the artist were Taiwanese or possessed Taiwanese citizenship. Songs could be submitted in any language, however those performed in one of the languages of Taiwan were given priority. A record 593 submissions were received by the deadline—breaking the previous record of 377, set during the thirteenth edition.

On 12 February 2021, "Nude Model" performed by the duo April Red was announced by TTV as the Taiwanese entry for the Own Asiavision Song Contest 25 during the TTV Chinese New Year's Eve television special Super Star, broadcast on the Main Channel as well as online via the broadcaster's website ttv.com.tw. "Nude Model", which was written by April Red member Shao Shih together with Chiu Pi who represented Taiwan in the twenty-second edition with the song "Present", was selected from five entries shortlisted by a selection panel formed by TTV which consisted of twenty members: ten local and international music professionals and ten members of the public who are viewers of the Own Asiavision Song Contest.
