[2] He played for the Chinese Taipei national team in the 2025 Asian Championship. He pitched a shutout inning against Palestine with a strikeout of Adam Musa, but he also surrendered the only hit his team allowed, to Yunis Haleem. Wang then succeeded Po-Ju Huang in the 6th inning against Japan, and he pitched 1 1/3 shutout innings with 2 strikeouts (Shohei Mizutani and Toyo Kumada). He pitched versus Japan again in the Gold Medal Game after he succeeded Chih-Lin Lee in the 7th inning, and he retired Manami Soeda and Keisho Amiya first. However, Wang then gave up a 2-run single to Ryosuke Aizawa, and Yuki Sato added a single. Wang finally struck out Yukiya Yano to end the inning, and Taiwan lost to Japan to win Silver in the event.[3] His brother is CPBL pitcher Yu-Hsiang Wang.[4]
