The single has been described as an electropop song, whose lyrics talk about the girls' decision to end a toxic relationship.

Commercially, "Kill This Love" peaked at number two on the Gaon Digital Chart and the Billboard K-pop Hot 100 in South Korea. The song became the group's first top-50 hit on the US Billboard Hot 100 and the UK Singles Chart, thus also becoming the highest-charting song by a female K-pop act on both charts. It reached number one in Malaysia as well as on Billboard World Digital Songs, and entered the national charts in 27 countries. The song has been certified diamond in Brazil, platinum in South Korea, Japan, and Australia, gold in France, and silver in the United Kingdom.
