On its way approaching the chorus, the tempo changed rapidly.

The chorus showcased the synchronized dancing and singing talent of the girls. Lisa's part shows how fearless she is in her Egyptian look. As the music video ends, it became more intensified by the dancing moves and astounding studio background.
