비밀 – refers to a mysterious fact. Something you are trying to conceal.

비결 – refers to tips and tricks. It’s not something you are actively trying to conceal. However, it often may be translated as ‘secret’, for example ‘the secret to perfect skin’.

“Out of the sayings I remember, ‘Freshly bloomed flowers are the prettiest’ is my favorite.”
“Why’s that?”
“Because ultimately it means that even if there were awesome moments that happened before, the moments that are still coming could be even better and more fantastic.”

“기억 나는 글 중에 ‘새로 피는 꽃이 가장 예쁘다’는 말을 제일 좋아해요.”
“왜요?”
“결국 과거에 얼마나 멋진 순간이 있었든, 새로 오는 순간이 더 멋지고 환상적일 수 있다는 거잖아요.”
