Photos of pre-debut 2PM members to air on cable

Never-before-seen photographs of boy band 2PM members from their childhood days will be shown on MBC's cable channel tonight.

MBC every1 said in a press release Wednesday that its documentary program "Star: The Secret" will feature photos and anecdotes of Taecyeon, Wooyoung and Junsu from their school years before they became K-pop idols.

The contents to be disclosed include footage from Taecyeon's old commercials from back when he was working as a model and actor during his trainee days at agency JYP Entertainment.

Another member Wooyoung will be seen in a high-school dance competition, dancing with a female teacher at a school festival. Wooyoung was reportedly well-known in his hometown of Busan for being a passionate dancer who practiced his dance steps for hours.

2PM main vocal Junsu's past will also be revealed -- at 17, he entered a local singing competition and won second place. He was also a talented writer, winning eight awards for his writing chops. "Secret" will carry footage from the singing competition and one of his early poems.

They made a much-hyped comeback as a six-member band after former leader Park Jae-beom quit the group in early September over controversial comments he made about Korea on his MySpace account before his debut.
