It's no secret that the four-membered group Secret is gaining popularity in Japan.

The girls have entered into the top five with their first Japanese album on the top music chart in the country, the Oricon daily album cahrt. According to data on November 16th, Secret's "Shy Boy" was at fifth place on the very day it was released.

The idol group had released their first single "Madonna" last August, and had gotten as far as 9th place on the Oricon daily and weekly charts. To have climbed up to fifth with their first album only a few months later is quite noteworthy.

In addition to "Shy Boy", the mini-album includes the supporting tracks "Starlight Moonlight", "Christmas Magic", along with 3 other songs.

The group is also planning for a nationwide tour in Japan, starting March 5th next year.
