Music video

A music video teaser was released through the group official YouTube channel on November 18 and a day later, a "key point dance" video was also released. The music video was released on November 21. It features members Somin and BM acting as a lowlife couple acting as a foil to the classy pair of members Jiwoo and J.Seph. The storyline unfolds, revealing that the women's unhealthy passion for their partners have created a shocking, Faulkner-esque situation, where each of the women are embracing not lovers but two corpses. Billboard described the video as "haunting", taking the edgy, obsessive nature of its lyrics. [2]
