Secret Garden: Countdown to Finale

The last two episodes will air this weekend.

That Woman by Baek Ji Young (Secret Garden OST)

I'm currently watching Secret Garden starring Hyun Bin ( My Name is Kim Samsoon ) and Ha Ji Won ( Memories of Bali ).

I've always felt that the right music/song can really help convey the intended messages to audience. Enjoy the song (lyrics can be found below - sorry if there's any inaccuracies!)
