They released their debut single "I Want You Back" October 2009. Secret's debut single did not meet great success and it wasn't until the following year that the group saw a rise in popularity. In 2010, Secret released two singles "Magic" and "Madonna" which earned much attention with both singles peaking at No. 2 and No. 1 respectively on the Gaon Digital Chart. With the success of "Magic" and "Madonna", the group received the "Newcomer Award" at the 25th Golden Disk Awards. During Secret's early days the group was known as "basement-idols" because of the poor living conditions they were in, but with their rapid success the group was able to move into better conditions.
