## Music video
### Background

The teaser for the video, released on August 8, first showed Kim Hyung-jun riding an airplane to see the top view of Hanseo University's airfield. It then showed him having fun with his friends on a summer trip while playing the single in the background. Kota was also shown in the video, both seen singing with Kim together and interacting with their friends.
Kim Do Yeon, who was behind the music videos of IU's "Last Fantasy" and Wanted's "Going To You", and movie director Park Jong Chul, who worked for films Arrow, The Ultimate Weapon and The Temperature of Romance were the directors of the music video. The official music video was released on August 13, 2013.

### Synopsis

The song is an acoustic medium R&B produced by Kim himself, while the music video has an innocent love story theme, filmed on Hanseo University' airfield, and even capturing sights in the sky.
The video, running for three minutes and thirty-nine seconds, begins a sound of a car engine starting and a still image of an airplane plushie hanging on the rear-view mirror; Kim Hyung-jun and Kota are inside the car with Kim driving it, ready to have a vacation. After the song title is displayed, Kim and his friends start to run from the beach side towards an ice cream vendor, who puts his hand out to stop them. They then start to line up with Kim behind them all. Their faces show anticipation and craving for the ice cream while the vendor takes his time preparing the dessert. A time lapse of the beach-side starting from the afternoon until the evening pops out, finishing the song introduction. Kota begins the song, her friends dancing around in the background, then cuts to a scene wherein she and Kim are sharing one ice cream cone and looking at each other afterwards. Kim then sings his part of the verse with the video continuing the ice cream scene wherein Kota pushes the food towards Kim's face.
The video then cuts to several close-ups with Kim and Kota, as well as scenes featuring both of them with their friends having fun on the seaside and dancing around the bonfire. During the second chorus at around two minutes and ten seconds, a plane taking off the runway is seen. Seconds later, the video cuts between Kim inside the plane as well as the scenery of the island and Hanseo University' airfield.
The video ends with the back view of Kim and Kota sitting on the sand and watching the sunset over sea with their Korean names seen below the "우리둘이" song title.
