Her Secret Weapon (, also called The Secret Weapon and The Secret Weapon, Her) is a 2015 South Korean reality show that focuses on members of lesser-known K-pop girl groups. The show explores what it is that turns people into fans of a certain girl group or individual idol by exposing the charms or "secret weapons" of each contestant. As ten contestants show off their hidden talents and charms through competition, their rankings in various missions are decided by a panel of ten judges who were reporters, industry experts, and passionate girl group fans. The show premiered on June 19, 2015, on MBC Every 1.
Beginning June 5, 2015, MBC Plus Media began teasing members of the show's cast, releasing a new member's identity every few days and eventually releasing a video trailer for the show as a whole. On June 17, 2015, a poster of all ten contestants was released on social media.
The show is hosted by Defconn, Jang Su-won, and Boom and features Yerin (GFriend), Dahye (BESTie), Alice (Hello Venus), Solbin (LABOUM), Sihyun (SPICA), Daye (Berry Good), Jisoo (TAHITI), Minhee (STELLAR), Jei (Fiestar), and Daeun (2EYES).
In the fifth episode, Yerin, Minhee, Jei, and Daye were eliminated. They were then given the choice to stay or leave the show. Yerin and Minhee chose to stay, while Jei and Daye chose to be replaced by a group mate. In the sixth episode, Taeha became the Berry Good representative and Cao Lu became the Fiestar representative.
