"Dumdi Dumdi" is an upbeat dance pop track song with tropical drum beats and a strong moombahton rhythm with booming percussion. The song has light latin pop influences and a subtle incorporation of the dependably "catchy" whistle hook and the onomatopoeic refrain of "Dumdi Dumdi".

Soyeon explained several specific lyrics on August 3, V Live. "With the hot sun I’m a little crazy / My cheeks are easily flushed", explaining that the sun was an excuse for her to go crazy — "I’m going crazy because of my passion"; "And then I feel dizzy and flushed / Like swimming I start dancing", explaining that she wanted to express something like, "did this person drink?", "kind of dizzy", “so exciting”; "The wind makes my heart beat / The waves make my heart pound", explaining that her youth is like the summer and the wind and waves are the songs; "Like this I want to close my eyes tightly / Forever even if the sun rises", she commented that she wants to live her youth passionately until 100; "When the moon falls asleep and the summer is cooled down / Sing to me the song of the hot time", explaining that she wanted to tell her fans – "when you feel like your passion is cooling off, you have to listen to this song."

Critical reception

Lee Nam-kyung of the MBN Star concluded that "(G)I-dle were able to highlight their own summer in their hip and unique charm, and show the aspect of a concept craftsman that fits the trend."

IZM writer Son Kiho opined "the song expresses youthful passion by borrowing the heat of summer, emphasizing the refreshing feeling with the sound of the waves, voice samples, and the moombahton rhythm with a cheerful percussion on the front. Each element of the arrangement faithfully captures the sense of the season by adding the whistle of the chorus, but it is somewhat familiar. The aim of the summer song dilutes the attractiveness of (G)I-dle, who broke away from the existing formula and raised momentum with an independent move, and left a distinctive result as the weight was removed for a more friendly approach."
