Yueh helped Taiwan finish second in the 2018 Asian Junior Championship. In the 2019 U-18 Baseball World Cup, he hit .227/.370/.273 with five runs in seven games, pitching 2 1/3 shutout innings and playing error-free defense in center. In the Gold Medal Game, he scored one of two runs in a 2-1 win over the US. He was the second pick of the 2019 CPBL Draft, after Ji-Hong Liu, taken by the CTBC Brothers two years after they took his brother Yung-Hua in the first round.

His first CPBL homer was off Mike Loree. He was 5 for 24 with a double and homer for the 2020 Brothers.
