Music video
The video for the song takes place in a dimly-lit, underground tunnel. Hitomi is shown walking down the tunnel, wearing boots and a black dress - sometimes alone, sometimes accompanied by a few people. Other shots feature her dancing in front of one of the tunnel walls, wearing a white tank top; and dancing with a large crowd of people in a red-lit area of the tunnel. She is also shown dancing in her black dress and performing a choreographed sequence with many other dancers.
