"Monkey, Don't Run!"
You'll often see detective agencies advertising their services, but why do they always use the term "catching a monkey"? There are three theories: The first originates from the Japanese colonial era, when Taiwanese people would break a monkey's tail to prevent it from escaping into the mountains. Similarly, those who caught adulterers would cut off their hair as punishment. The second theory suggests that "leading a monkey" (牽猴), referring to monkey shows, was extended to describe illicit relationships. The third theory posits that in the past, wives often referred to their husbands as "old monkey" (老猴), hence the term "catching a monkey." With the development of internet information, individuals can now access information more easily. However, in the early days, detective agencies, beyond their investigative functions, perhaps served more like underground counseling centers, supporting the helpless souls within anxious families.
