Music video

The music video is set in a small experimental town where almost every human has been replaced with a cyborg. Almost, because Dero Goi has not been replaced yet. Dero realizes the truth due to an accident a woman had, and tries to escape. At the end, it turns out that Dero has already been copied, and it's a machine which wanted to escape and prevent being converted.
