. The song is the second single from their second mini-album, Hit Your Heart
. The song reached #9 on the Korea GAON singles chart.
" is focused on Hyuna, "Muzik
" is focused on Jiyoon, and "What a Girl Wants" is focused on Gayoon, who has been the Main vocalist. This pattern of featuring a single member as the "lead" in a song was relatively broken by HuH, which instead focuses on the group as a whole. However, I My Me Mine features the group's maknae (youngest member), Sohyun, in the chorus. Given her position in the group, this effectively "features" her more so than previous songs. Thus far, the group's leader, Jihyun is the only member to have not been "featured" in a song, although more recent songs such as Superstar have had a tendency to focus more on the whole group rather than just a single member. In the two new Korean singles, Heart to Heart and Mirror Mirror, both Sohyun and Jihyun have been given much bigger singing parts and more screen time in the MVs.
