Lost and Found

The MV captures the members in various moments that evoke a cinematic music drama: from the band practicing together, to Gaon and Jooyeon running somewhere, O.de and Jun Han, Jungsu deep in thought, and Gun Il observing something with a focused gaze. Each scene reflects a unique facet of youth. The song is about someone waiting endlessly for love that never comes back.
