their reactions are adorable, especially the black haired girl.

The music video plays on the theme of friendship. The stars in each of them represent their bond. The white haired girl didn't have one because she "forgot". But once she starts hanging out with her old friends again she regains the "lost" memories as well as her star. The moral is no matter what happens, you can never forget the bonds you created with your childhood friends, as they made you the person you are today.

i like the subtle detail of the black haired girl's star being on the back of her neck. unlike the other guys having it someplace more obvious, it's so easily covered by her hair. makes sense given how mature and uptight she looks, and with the way she acts as a leader to the group. but she really is a kid at heart.

I think 2:13 is the most played part is purely for that look of excitement the leader has. And the fact that a lot of us haven't felt that excited in a long time.

after 3 months, i realized that the slow motion that starts in 2:16 may also symbolize how time seems to move slower as a kid, since you're just having fun and not worried to look what time it is, and now I always have to look on the watch, pay attention to the calendar, and it seems like years are just flying by and i'm not making good use of them.

Lyrics
Tell her when it rains
I don't feel it
Tell her I'm to blame
Didn't see it
Winter's snows
Don't hide my woes
I can't lie to you
I tried to warn her that sometimes we fall in the dark
It's summertime
Singing Al Green in your car
Heading to a party
And the night air feels alive
Just sitting here
I'm waiting, oh yeah
But he's not by my side
Feeling dazed and I can't get him out
Stuck in yesterday
He don't know it
I rarely showed it
I can't lie to you
I tried to warn him that sometimes we fall in the dark
It's summertime
Singing Al Green in your car
Heading to a party
And the night air feels alive
But in my life
I never meant to cause no harm
Never hurt nobody
Just wanna take this chance to fly
On this summer night
But in my life
I never meant to cause no harm
Never hurt nobody
Just wanna take this chance to fly

man I didn't even notice the stars on them until the end, and now it kinda makes sense to me-
The stars represent their friendship together, the one girl with the white hair has drifted away from them, which is why she has no star in the beginning. So they go back to this seemingly abandoned place, where they use to have fun together and draw with spray paint as kids. When they all try to have fun spray painting again, she seems to enjoy it but doesn't fully remember/understand (explaining the sad face she draws on the wall.) Once they remind her of the fun they all use to have as kids, by sitting her down on this frog plushie and they do the entering into "knighthood" motion with the stick, essentially bringing her back into the group. She remembers and gains her star back; symbolizing that she's reconnected with them. They may be older teens/adults now, but still value their memories together as friends c:
In summary I love this, thank you for creating this masterpiece Siames and RUDO! .w.

after watching this several times over the past few years, I've noticed something really interesting, and I think it changes the meaning of the video from one of belonging to one of forgiveness (which very much go hand in hand). when they first enter the building, above the door are four stars, suggesting that there were originally four friends, before they entered the building this time. to the right is a drawing of the four of them titled bffs, but the white haired girl is scribbled out in red. also, at the end of the song when we see the four stars on the window, the lightest one (representing the white haired girl) has a very faint outline behind it, as if there was a star there previously that could not be washed off all the way. my best guess is that something happened and she left the friend group, but has now come back and rediscovered all the good times she had with her friends. despite what happened in the past, your true friends will always accept you and help you find where you belong.
