South Korean boy band

Ulala Session Origin Seoul, South Korea Genres K-pop Years active 2011–present Label Ulala Company Members Kim Myung-hoon Park Seung-il Choi Do-won Past members Lim Yoon-taek Park Kwang-sun Goon Jo Ha Jun-seok

**Ulala Session** ([Korean](/source/Korean_language): 울랄라 세션) is a South Korean [boy band](/source/Boy_band) that rose to fame after winning the 2011 television talent show *[Superstar K 3](/source/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](/source/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](/source/Seoul_Broadcasting_System)'s *One Night in TV Entertainment* to confirm the diagnosis.[6][*[unreliable source?](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources)*]

On 11 February 2013, Lim Yoon-taek, leader of Ulala Session, died from [gastric cancer](/source/Gastric_cancer).[7][*[unreliable source?](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources)*][8]
