Music video

The music video showed the group packing up their things into boxes as if they were moving out of the house. While doing this, they look at photographs taken during their performances, photoshoots, as well as other events that they had experienced. When everything is packed up, they look at their past music videos on a sofa before finally gathering together in an empty room to say goodbyes for a final time. At the same time it shows all the rooms empty and when it shows the living room they're in, we find the room empty, indicating they have left.
