The Original version of the music video was directed by Choi Yongseok, whilst the Japanese version was directed by Edie Ko. The first teaser was released on April 23rd and the full music video on April 30th. As it was depicting troubled youth, some scenes were cut. The full version (Original ver.) was released later on May 10th, featuring some more darker scenes.
