Composition
"Violeta" is a pop track with tropical house beats and a future bass intro, inspired by the story "The Happy Prince" lyrically. It is described by Jeff Benjamin of 'Billboard' as having "a color and floral theme as the ladies try to conjure and coax a lover into opening up to them like a flower on the verge of blooming". It offers a more uptempo and choreography-focused than the previous Korean song "La Vie en Rose". Jack Wannan of 'LWOS Life' praised the song as "[an] amazing production".
