Music video
Background

The music video opens with Xu holding an umbrella standing on the banks of River Thames. As the song starts, Xu is seen lying on bed unmotivated. He finally got up but he is grieving i.e. crying while eating plain bread and breaking plates. As he was eating the bread, he remembered their happy times together. He saw the doll they bought and the camera they used while taking pictures of each other. He revisited the store where they bought the doll from and saw a single piece. He brought his other doll and placed it beside the lone piece. He finally threw all the pictures they took together and broke down crying. Lastly, there was a flashback scene where they had a date at the river bank. He went to that place again, as seen on the opening scene and let go of his umbrella. He smiled while leaving that place finally letting go of the past. Xu, wearing a black shirt with a black background singing along was shown between each scene.Credits and personnel
