Music Video

PV Shot

The music video for "I'll be there" was directed by Kubo Shigeaki and produced by Murakoshi Hayato.

It features Kuu in various parts of a desolate white-sand beach in various outfits, singing joyfully about her summer love in the sunshine and moonlight. At the end of the video, a large hardback book washes up on shore. When she picks it up, the kanji spelling "Ningyo-hime" are clearly visible - leading us into the next PV on this single.
