Hailing from the said album, "Super Shy" features a refreshing take on drums, bass, and juke music, which is highly reminiscent of music from the late '90s and early 2000s.

The song is bubbly and upbeat. Lyrically, Haerin, Danielle, Hanni, Minji, and Hyein sing about being too timid to confess to their budding love interest, despite desperately wanting to share their hearts' desires.
