It'z Different received many critics, usually favorable. IZM's Jeong Yeon-kyung stated that: ""Dalla Dalla" borrows a dance beat in a ratchet style, exuding a YG atmosphere, and the personality of Red Velvet and F(x), represented by electronic sounds, comes out. The only choice for JYP style is the old-fashioned 'I'm different' narrative and the 'Gapbunpong (suddenly mood)' chorus, like Miss A's' "I Don't Need a Man", which eventually leads to the same woman with an arrow of blame."[17]

Billboard's Tamar Herman said that: "The electropop song is an empowering anthem, introducing ITZY as a group that’s an alternative to its peers: the title “Dalla Dalla” is the word for “different” in Korean, repeated. "I'm different from the kids, I'm different,” members sing in the chorus ahead of the chanting titular refrain. “Don't measure me by your standards alone, I love being myself, I'm nobody else.""[18]
