Composition

The opener and first single, "Encore LaLa", is a retro-styled song dominated by brass instrumentation and drum arrangements. A writer for Sohu wrote that Kuo's singing in the song was "sweet, sexy and energetic", while describing the song as "both retro and modern". "Dowry" is themed around sisterhood, with lyrics declaring that "good sisters have to get the nod of approval from other sisters when they are in love or getting married". Taiwanese-American singer-songwriter FanFan wrote "Chat", which Aidiren of Sohu Music called "a good karaoke song".
