“Secret Garden” secures final plot script by announcing gag order on staff

For weeks, the ending to SBS’s hit drama, “Secret Garden“, has been headlining with controversies surrounding script leaks by different staff members. With the various conclusions at hand, the drama’s fandom has been thrown into chaos, as fans furiously debated over whether the drama would have a happy or sad ending, to the point where the drama’s homepage crashed and remained offline for hours on end.

In an effort to keep the drama’s plot under wraps, producers have announced a gag order on all of the staff members and have come up with a ‘007-like’ plan in delivering the scripts under tight security in order to prevent leakage.

One producer commented, “We’re glad to be able to give so much joy to everyone with ‘Secret Garden.’ Thank you to all of our viewers, and although we know that you are all curious, please watch on until the very end.”

The drama’s 18th episode jumped to over 30% in viewer ratings for the first time since its airing, confidently ranking first in broadcast ratings.

Many celebrities have also been swept with the “Secret Garden” obsession. BoA recently tweeted, “I want to duet with ‘Oska’ so I can see ‘Kim Ju Won’,” while Se7en wrote that he could finally sleep peacefully after seeing ‘Ju Won’ and ‘Ra-Im.’

Shinsadong Tiger, the composer behind B2ST and 4minute, even tweeted the writer of the drama and said, “Hello, Writer. I’m a person that makes music, and I’ll let you hear a song that I’ve never released before if you give me a hint about the spoiler.. I can’t wait a full week (cry cry).”

Hilariously, actress Kim So Hyun pranked netizens by announcing on her Twitter that she had the final script for the drama in her hands, and uploaded a picture with a script that had the words, “Thank you for watching ‘Secret Garden’ (this is how it ends!)’”
