Throughout the music video, Youngjae changes into various outfits, from a cute charming prince to a cool charming prince.
There were also multiple sets in the music video. It starts with Youngjae laying on a table with his head down. He wakes up trying to remember what had happened to him. A woman in a black dress walks past him through a door while he tries to remember the party scene.Â
The color palette in this scene is dark and chilling. As soon as Youngjae walks through the door, the color tone changes to bright and yellow. He later sits with a group of people who are playing chess and drinking tea. The scene changes to a much larger chess garden.Â
Youngjae changes into a cooler and more royal appearance during the rap verse. He sits at the same table we saw in the first scene. A lot of people are eating, drinking and enjoying the party. By the end of the video, the woman Youngjae had been looking for offers him a drink which makes him pass out on the table.
