Tue Jun 24 04:30:00 UTC 2025: **Headline: Comedian Horong Fired by STR Network Amidst Rumors and Fallout**
**Taipei, Taiwan** – Taiwanese comedian Horong has been terminated from his contract with STR Network, the company behind “The Night Night Show with Horong,” due to “differences in philosophies.” This announcement comes shortly after rumors surfaced regarding a potential romantic relationship between Horong and his co-host, Albee.
Adding fuel to the fire, STR Network executives, including CEO Born, have unfollowed Horong on Instagram, prompting speculation of a major rift between the comedian and his former colleagues.
Horong joined STR Network in 2018, becoming a writer and performer on “Born’s Night Night Show.” He later took over hosting duties with Albee, becoming a key figure for the company after Born’s departure from the host role.
The termination announcement on May 23rd was brief, with STR Network stating they would not provide further comment.
This is not the first controversy surrounding Horong. Last year, “The Night Night Show with Horong” faced backlash for a guest’s comments that were perceived as discriminatory towards disabled lawyer Chen Chun-han. While Born initially defended Horong during that incident, the current situation suggests a significant change in their relationship.
The news has sparked widespread discussion, with fans expressing disappointment over the apparent fallout between Horong and STR Network.
