Although born in South Korea, Wang Chien-ming was eligible to play for Chinese Taipei through his grandfather.[3] He would be selected for the squad for the 2019 AFC Asian Cup qualification – Third Round match against Singapore on 27 March 2018, however he could not play because there was still confusion about his grandfather who had a Republic of China passport rather than the newly named and relocated Taiwan passport.[4] He would be eventually allowed to represent Chinese Taipei and would make his debut on 1 June 2018 against India in the 2018 Intercontinental Cup in match that ended in a 5-0 defeat.[5]
