Composition


The song was described by Billboard's Tamar Herman, as an "effervescent dance track", that "returns [GFriend] to the sweet synth-pop style they favored on early releases". Adding that "the track leads with plinking synths and gentle instrumentals before building into a majestic, tempo-shifting choral climax introduced by bright strings and graceful harmonies as the six women let their vocals soar".[1]


Release


The single was released in three editions: Regular, Limited Type A and Limited Type B.[2] It was also released as a digital EP.[3]

Music video


A music video for "Memoria" was released on September 19, 2018. The video features the group as they dream away their days, before waking up in a slightly changed world full of glitter, art, angels, and more before they all come together atop of a roof. For the choreography scenes, the members don a variety of tartan-patterned dresses as they perform the sweeping, ballet-inspired routine.[1]
