The fifth track, "Honestly", is an R&B-pop song combining "dreamy synth pads", "trap drum beats" and "soothing vocals". The sixth track, "One Kiss", is a mid-tempo song featuring "majestic strings" and "powerful drums".[5] The album closes with previously released singles "Talk Saxy" and "Love 119";[8] "Talk Saxy" features saxophone riffs and 808 bass, while "Love 119" incorporates "sweet piano riffs" and samples "Emergency Room" by South Korean band Izi.[9]
