"I used the hook technique to turn the song into a sort of riddle. I wanted the unique expressions to arouse the curiosity of listeners. The 'let me see ya lalala, love me hey yayaya' part just means 'please look at me, as I love you.' The 'u-hee, u-hee' part is a mimetic word and my way of expressing the way a girl smiles while looking at her crush. The 'go it go it go it go' part means 'I’ll fold my heart up and send it to you. I wanted to express the unique music through lyrics that sounded like a spell. Please don’t misunderstand it and just enjoy the exciting music."
The group was heavily criticized for their use of stereotypical Native American costumes and gestures (patting their hands over their mouths, "capturing" a foreigner and tying him to a stake, and living in teepees) in the music video. One author compared the MV to After School RED's "In The Night Sky" (which was also criticized for its use of Native headdresses), saying that T-ara's MV was portraying Native Americans as "tribal and uncivilized".
