On December 7, 2014, during HKT48's Taipei concert, AKB48 announced that they will hold an audition for members of the AKB48 in Taiwan someday, but it was unclear whether the audition is related to TPE48.

From 2,152 who auditioned, 17 were chosen as member of the "AKB48 Taiwan Kenkyusei" (AKB48台灣研究生) to have completed the audition on August 17, 2015.
