Taiwan’s not-so-knowledgeable baby dragons…

engrish, teaching English
Dunno if these guys are still around but upon seeing this billboard I couldn’t help but question just how much knowledge these little baby “dargons” might have to pass on to Taiwan’s kids:
Spotted in Miaoli County’s Qiding Township, I’m guessing the run-down building the billboard is attached to isn’t the dragon lair.
Or maybe it is and, possibly due to not being able to spell their own name correctly, they’re now out of business.
In any case dragons don’t teach kids, they eat them – even baby ones.
- Leave choosing the gender of your baby to chance
- Even a dead baby can’t save you from Taiwan’s overwork
- When does hamburger advertising go too far?

I love how you spotted it in small writing on the logo but completely missed the big one

Lol, I just felt the big one didn’t need highlighting.
When I resized the original the logo was a bit small to make out so I enhanced it
. Figured the big one was obvious enough.

Maybe it was a simple reference to Dorgon, Prince Regent of the Jin (Qing) throne.

If Dorgon is commonly represented by a green baby dragon, you might be onto something!
