To promote the track, f(x) attended and performed on several Korean television shows, including Music Bank and M Countdown, and later on their first headlining concert tour, titled Dimension 4 – Docking Station in 2016.

Background and release[edit]

South Korean girl group f(x) had achieved success in South Korea, and through Asia with singles including 'Electric Shock' and 'Hot Summer' as a five-piece group, consisting of Victoria Song, Amber Liu, Luna, Krystal Jung and Sulli.^[1] During the promotion of the group's third studio album Red Light (2014), member Sulli did not participate in live performances due to her 'suffering from continual negative comments and false rumors', according to the group's parent company S.M. Entertainment's official statement on July 25, 2014. f(x)'s promotional activities thereafter involved the four other members, while Sulli took a career hiatus.^[2] On August 7, 2015, it was announced that Sulli had officially withdrawn from the group to focus on her acting career, and f(x) would continue to promote as a four-member group.^[3]

On September 11, 2015, the group confirmed work on a then-upcoming studio titled 4 Walls, and the release of a new single and music video, which was revealed to be the title track to the album.^[4] It premiered on October 27, 2015, the same date as the album's release, as the lead single.^[5] A Japanese version of the track was released alongside the newly-recorded 'Cowboy' (stylized as 'COWBOY'), as a double A-side single in Japan on November 2, 2016 via Avex Trax.

Composition and style[edit]

'4 Walls' was written by Jam Factory member Lee Seu-ran, whilst composing and production was handled by LDN Noise, Tay Jasper, and Adrian McKinnon. Lee Soo-man, the former president at S.M. Entertainment, also served as the executive producer to the track.^[5] Musically, it is a song heavily influenced by electronic dance music. It was described as a tropical house song with 'slinky' synthesizers and 'dreamy' hooks by The Star's Chester Chin.^[6] It was characterized as an 'update' of UK garage by Spin, while Jeff Benjamin at Billboard detailed it as having a deep house sound.^[7][8] In a capsule review for PopMatters, Scott Interrante summed up the song as 'dance-oriented' and stated that the track 'uses a funky house beat to craft a cool pop song with a subdued vibe and memorable chorus.'^[9] John Chiaverina from Kpopstarz.com wrote an extended review on the track, noting that the song was heavily inspired by the British music scene and Western electronic dance music. Chiavernica compared the track's composition and vocals to a large variety of work by different artists, including Disclosure, Mariah Carey, Pitbull, and the song 'Show Me Love' by American vocalist Robin S..^[10]

Critical response[edit]

Upon its release, the track garnered generally favorable reviews from music critics. Daniel Montesinos-Donaghy from Vice.com gave the song a positive review, feeling that 'the group's romantic fervor fulfils the euphoria that drives some of the best house and pop music.'^[11] An editor at Seoulbeats.com praised the composition and production of the song, stating 'It achieves this laid back intensity as the song progresses and manages to have this without the usual heavy bass drop or shift in chords that one can find in usual K-pop songs.'^[12]

Jeff Benjamin from Billboard complimented the song's composition, and compared it to the song 'View' by South Korean boy band and brother group to f(x), Shinee; he explained, 'The deep house sound is perfect for f(x) and creates a superior sister to 'View,' complete with moments of belting, rapping and even an awesome synthy breakdown at the bridge.'^[8] Writing for Pitchfork, Sheldon Pearce described the song as a 'superficial rebirth', further explaining, 'though the album's lead single and title track has veiled references to changing and becoming new, f(x)'s synthpop bounce remains steadfast and uncompromised.' He also believed that 'though Sulli was undoubtedly a standout among the group, her departure allows others to grab the spotlight'.^[13] Jakob Dorof from Spin discussed the album's 'minor misgivings', and contrasted it with the title track, stating 'Nowhere moreso than its title track, a deft U.K. garage upgrade that becomes definitively K-pop with rapper Amber's surprisingly fire verse and a visionary double-bridge that shifts time, feel and genre with a logic all its own.'^[7] Chester Chin, writing for The Star, believed that the song's tropical and deep house elements were 'leaps and bounds ahead of the conventional K-pop fares'.^[6]
