Co-created by Jay Swuen & Jas Lin, the music video for “Nanao” (难熬) is a haunting tale between two lovers drowning in toxic cycles of entanglement and codependency. Inspired by the ancient Chinese mythological book "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" (山海经 ~300 B.C. ), two dancers portray “MANMAN”（蛮蛮), a mythical beast made of conjoined one-eyed birds. As the video spirals, the two halves undergo a violent process of merging with flashes of fleeting intimacy and tenderness. It is a fizzy chamber yarn, evoking loss, regret, rage, and violence, with flashes of fleeting intimacy and tenderness.
