Chk Chk Boom boasts confident lyrics with a catchy loop and a distinctive top line set to Latin-style hip-hop rhythms. The track was crafted by members Bang Chan, Changbin, and Han—collectively known as the producing trio 3RACHA—who wrote the lyrics and contributed to the composition. The music video includes a special appearance by Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman as their MCU characters, Deadpool and Wolverine.
