"All good things must come to an end." It precisely describes the feelings that all students, regardless of their nationality, must have if they have been involved in OVAL 2009.

Though they had only such a limited time in Tokyo, the students from China, Korea, and Japan have accomplished many goals by demonstrating their exceptional talent and will power. They have overcome many difficulties, which included their cultural gaps and time restraints.

The presentations by the final 6 teams were the highlight of such efforts.

A week before this day, they were complete strangers to each other. Only six days before the contest, they met each other for the first time and were separated into teams, which consisted of three members each; each person coming from a different country. Only then did they get a chance to start discussing the ideas of presentations from a variety of fields of interest.

While the staff from each country backing up and the professional business advisors sharing their wisdom, the contestants managed to make excellent presentations without getting enough sleep. The preliminary competition was fierce, and literally "a cut-throat experience." Of all 30 superb presentations, only six of them had to be chosen to go to the final stage.

1st Presentation: Team Shinanogawa "Likea family.com (Online Matching Service)" by Mika Akazawa, Wan Xiao, and Chung Yoon Jae

6th Presentation: "Artculator: Circulate your art!" by Koh Takemoto, Boyu Jessie Zhou, Han Bi Hwang

Needless to say, all of them gave equally superior presentations, and so it must have been difficult for the judges to choose the winning team. However, a contest cannot end without a winner; thus after a 30-minute intermission, the final verdict was announced.
