Ulala Session (Korean: 울랄라 세션) is a South Korean boy band that rose to fame after winning the 2011 television talent show Superstar K 3.[1] The group currently consists of members Kim Myung-hoon, Park Seung-il, Choi Do-won.[2] The group originally included Lim Yoon-taek, who died from gastric cancer in 2013, and Park Kwang-sun, who left after enlisting in the military in 2015. Choi Do-won and Ha Jun-seok joined the group in 2016.[3][4]

Career

Prior to their appearance on Superstar K3, the group was not widely known in South Korea, performing "anywhere, even in the middle of a schoolyard if there was a stage."[5]

During Superstar K3, audiences responded particularly fondly to lead singer Lim's battle with stomach cancer.[5] This led to some speculation that Ulala Session was making up the story of Lim's cancer as a way to garner sympathy during the competition; Lim responded in July 2012 by bringing his doctor on SBS's One Night in TV Entertainment to confirm the diagnosis.[6]

On 11 February 2013, Lim Yoon-taek, leader of Ulala Session, died from gastric cancer.[7][8]
