She also added lyrics from Oh My Girl’s latest song “Dun Dun Dance” and shared, “To be honest, I wrote the lyrics to ‘dlwlrma’ in the past with Oh My Girl in mind as the models. I feel good because it suits you as well as I thought. Thank you. After this, Mimi adds a rap and it’s very good so make sure you watch until the end.”
