The first season of TOP gogo premiered on May 13, 2012 and featured 13 contestants.[1] The show began to air in May. However, after the competition was down to the last three contestants, the show took a temporary break and stopped airing. The finale aired some months later in October where the progress and final adventures of the top 3 in London was shown. Twenty-two-year-old Tako Mandaria was declared the winner of the competition. She would later on go to sue the producers of the show because she did not receive all of her prizes.[2][3]
