About the Song

Composed by FRNK and Ylva Dimberg, with lyrics by Gigi and Ylva Dimberg, the song builds its charm through a minimal groove, soft vocal tone, and a playful sense of confidence. Arranged by 250 and FRNK, 《Cookie》 highlights NewJeans’ early ability to make a simple pop track feel stylish, memorable, and distinctly their own, balancing sweetness, restraint, and a clean modern sound.
