Music and lyrics

A 1970s romantic soul song with a simple jazz rhythm, "Slow Dancing" was written by its producers Freekind and Jinsu Park, together with Donghyun Kim, Gigi, Cautious Clay, and Sam Gendel. Lyrically, V sings of a "typical love story", with "one lover pining over another singing words such as 'It shouldn't feel like this, hurts too much already."[2]

"Slow Dancing" won six first place trophies—it achieved a triple crown on M Countdown—on domestic television music shows, and two consecutive Melon Popularity awards for the weeks ending September 18 and 25, 2023.[3] It was nominated for and won Best Music – Fall at the Fact Music Awards in October.[4]
