The third prize, worth 100,000 won, was awarded to Tsatsral Baatar, a senior in the Department of International Studies. The second prize, worth 200,000 won, went to Lim Seang Heng, a junior in the Department of Film & Video, and the first prize, worth 300,000 won, was won by Miyata Vladimir, a senior in the Department of International Studies. All of the awards were presented by DSU President Jekuk Chang at a ceremony held on November 7th in the Student Plaza.
