Bag Allowance for Star Gold

I have an upcoming flight from London to Taipei. The bag allowance is 30 kg shown on the ticket. I wonder if I get extra weight as Star Alliance Gold? I looked through the website and could only find the information for TK members only.

Thanks.

Someone has asked me this personally and could not give a definitive answer to them as I was unsure,

A friend ( partner *G ) is flying on a piece based concept business class ticket that comes with 3x32kgs of baggage, would the 4th piece would be 23kgs or 32kgs.
I personally never travelled with that much baggage at a single time.

Is it on LOT (as LOT is the only airline I know with 3 x 32kg C-class allowance)?

If it is LOT the 4th piece maximum weight is 32kg.

Wow, double checked the TK website and it looks like they have decreased regular Business allowance to 2 x 32kgs on that route.
Since I haven't flown paid TK J on a piece-concept route for at least 10 years, I never realized the decrease which might have even been taken in place a few years ago.
