El Gamma Penumbra wins 'Asia's Got Talent'

MANILA, Philippines – Filipino shadow play dance group El Gamma Penumbra won
the first season of Southeast Asian pan-regional reality show Asia’s Got Talent.

The result leaked moments before the finale, set to air evening of Thursday, May 14. Social media users began tweeting the news.
Fans can still watch the group claim their victory at 8pm on AXN Asia.
