About the Song

《Secret Garden》 is widely regarded as the defining breakthrough of OH MY GIRL, a song that marked their first-ever music show win and firmly established their identity as true concept-driven artists. Released in 2018 as the title track of their fifth mini album The Fifth Season, the song became a turning point that transformed the group’s narrative from steady growth to mainstream recognition. Built around a delicate yet powerful fantasy motif, 《Secret Garden》 showcases OH MY GIRL’s emotional storytelling and layered performance style, elevating their image beyond trend-based releases. The track was released under WM Entertainment and composed by hitmaker Steven Lee, whose refined pop sensibility helped crystallize the group’s signature sound. More than a hit, 《Secret Garden》 functioned as a strategic cornerstone—solidifying OH MY GIRL’s reputation as a group capable of turning abstract concepts into lasting cultural impact.

My secret garden. I am still dreaming a long dream. One i could not tell anyone. The morning sunlight taps on me saying hello. I stay and leave here every day without even realizing it. For the first time i will show it only to you. Follow me come with me bae. Hold my hand you and me.

Inside me there is a precious place only for myself. For now it looks like nothing special. But if you wait just a little you will meet it soon. I planted something wonderful and amazing inside. You cannot see anything yet. But if you wait just a little you will come to know it. My secret garden.

People are so simple you know. They only try to believe what they see with their eyes. Raindrops gently soothe me for a moment. And kindly give me strength again. Today i will invite only one person. Follow me come with me bae. Imagine it you and me.

I have seen it through the crack of a door that opened inside you. For now it looks like nothing special. But if you wait just a little you will meet it soon. I planted something wonderful and amazing inside. You cannot see anything yet. But if you wait just a little you will come to know it. Your secret garden.
