Music video The music video for "Stars Will Align" premiered on October 11, 2024 and was directed by Rafatoon. The video features a boy meeting a girl while riding bikes on a dirt path intersection. He goes home and discovers celestial beings connecting through a telescope. When they touch, they create beams of light and energy that shoot upon a lake nearby. He rides his bike and gets on a rowboat to the lake where particles of celestial matter hangs in the air. Soon, the girl he met before appears also in a rowboat, discovering the same phenomenon.
