Oh my, where to begin!
It took me a while to decide on a favourite scene, but ten replays later and I finally have an answer! My favourite scene just HAS to be the underwater scene during the bridge of the song!
Not only is it absolutely stunning (the reflection of the light on the air bubbles, the way the light brightens up Woosung's hair, and the slight RGB offset are just a few of the reasons) but it's also a perfect visual representation of the song! A song about infatuation that you know isn't healthy (lyrics such as "loving you's not the best for me" and "I'm approaching your lips just to fall into your trap" etc) paired with an underwater scene is just a perfect mix, in my opinion.
Woosung shows no will to get out of the water, although he's clearly in a dangerous situation. This perfectly represents the lyrics of the song where he expresses love towards someone despite knowing that it's not an ideal relationship. Even though Woosung is clearly in danger of drowning, he doesn't mind the situation.
The woman in the music video, clearly representing the person the song is aimed towards, has a very "mermaid-like" appearance (gemstone and pearls, wavy hair with a damp, salt-water appearance) and so once again, an underwater scene works perfectly. If the water represents the woman, then Woosung is "drowning" in her. Another point is that the mermaid aesthetic could actually be representing a siren instead. Sirens are known to lure sailors to their deaths with their beautiful voices and in this song, the woman lures Woosung into his "death" with her dimples.
Overall, my favourite scene in the music video is the underwater section which can be seen during the bridge of the song and moving into the final chorus. As I explained above, it's not only a visually stunning scene but it's also something which perfectly represents the lyrics of the song and has multiple interpretations and potential hidden meanings which help to add depth to an already beautiful music video.
