DDD (EXID song)

The song was written and produced by Shinsadong Tiger, LE and V!VE. It samples the 2015 song "WTF (Where They From)" by Missy Elliott featuring Pharrell Williams. The song was described by Billboards Tamar Herman as an electro-pop song, "[k]icking off with a powerful bass beat and wailing synths". She added that the song "begins as a mid-tempo track before a breathy pre-chorus builds into a climactic chorus that's filled with groovy instrumentals and is enhanced by LE's garbled titular chant". Lyrically, the song "tell[s] the story of a woman demanding the truth from a lover who cheats on her time and time again but trembles in fear before her, as she alternates between reactions ranging from regret to anger to self-blame." == Chart performance ==
