The Secret of Tears is the third studio album from Hong Kong female singer-songwriter Jinny Ng released on 21 January 2016 along with 4 postcards. It includes 11 songs, with "The Beautiful Times", "The Secret of Tears" and "We Are All Hurt" as the lead singles as well as her original work, "Letting You Go".

Background In an interview with Billboard Radio China at the time of the release, Jinny spoke about her music as a diary that records and expresses her feelings. She said her inspiration usually comes while she's taking a shower, and that for "Letting You Go", she was inspired by online content and her own experiences.

"Falling into You" is a collaboration with Dominic Chu, a friend she had known for six years.
