"Doughnut" was produced by JYP Entertainment's in-house producer Woo S. Rhee "Rainstone", and was composed by Rainstone, Alexis Kesselman, Fingazz, and Francis. It is Twice's first ballad single in Japan and takes inspiration from the city pop genre.[2] The lyrics, written by Lauren Kaori, are about "the hole left in your heart when you're missing a special person".[3]
