The clients listed very specific demands, according to the platform’s founder, surnamed Hsieh (謝). The demand for the service has emerged due to lifestyle changes such as the low fertility rate, with younger generations focusing more on flexibility and efficiency, Hsieh said. There have even been clients who asked to scatter golden sand in the cemetery, she said. Mucao (牧草草), founded in 2020, has also seen rising demand during the Tomb Sweeping Festival, handling about 100 assignments this year alone. Chief executive officer Lee Yi-en (李宜恩) said most clients are aged between 50 and 70, balancing work and physical limitations with tradition.
