Cambodia's Next Top Model, Cycle 1 is the first installment of an upcoming reality television show hosted by Yok Chenda in which a number of women compete for the title of Cambodia's Next Top Model along with the chance to begin their career in the modeling industry. The other three judges are Kouy Chandanich, Remy Hou, and Chem Vuth Sovin.
The show's first season included 50 semi-finalists, which were revealed on a weekly basis in clusters of five on the show's official Facebook page. The same was done for the revealing of the top 35. Fifteen finalists were selected to move on to the main competition.[1]
Casting calls and auditions were held in Cambodia from May through June 2014. Contestants were required to be between the ages of 18-27, and meet a minimum height requirement of 1.65 meters (5 ft 5 in, excluding the Maltese adaptation of the Top Model franchise, this is the lowest height cut-off in any adaptation). The show began to air on November 14, 2014.[2][3][4]
The winner of the competition was 22-year-old Chan Kong Kar from Banteay Meanchey. Apart from winning the title of Cambodia's Next Top Model, she will receive a cash prize of $20,000, the opportunity to appear on the cover of Sovrin Magazine in Cambodia, and a one year membership with The Place Gym in Phnom Penh.
