Josh shared that the red color best represents him because of his dominant personality and as someone who doesn't like being controlled, which explained the red ropes in his zoneit showed how love bounded him. The box in Ken's set production represented his comfort zone due to him being introvert, but when it comes to love, he realized that getting out of that box should be done in order to express it. Justin portrayed as an artist in the video with frames representing different kinds of personalities and emotions. He was trying to figure out what personality was he should be to win the love but in the end, he realized he has to be himself only.
