The two runners-up were Miss Korea, Han na Yoo and Miss Margarita Island, Emily Fernandez. For Korea it was the very first time to enter the Top 3 within an international beauty pageant of WBO – WORLD BEAUTY ORGANIZATION.
 
Brazil, represented by the stunning Marcela Duarte and 22 year old Miss Greece Antonia Kallimoukou placed 3rd and 4th runner up. An international panel of judges including Ligia Petit, Miss Intercontinental 2001 who is today a famous actress in Venezuela did not have an easy job at this night. The new Miss Intercontinental 2007 was crowned by last years winner Katarina Manova who won the crown 2006 in Nassau – the Bahamas.
 
The event was sponsored by the Le Meridien Starwood Hotel Group, Universal and Seychelles Tourism Board. All delegates had a tremendous stay at one of the most luxuriest hotels in the Seychelles, the Le Meridien Fishermans Cove and Barbarons.
