It was composed by Super Changddai with production by Will Simms and Tom Havelock.[2] The song's music video, which features comedian Yoo Se-yoon and 2AM's Jo Kwon, has been noted for its "fanservice shots" and "flirty" choreography.[2] Corynn Smith of MTV K gave the track a positive review, calling it "ear-worm-y" and highlighted its production team.[2]
