Ulala Session () is a South Korean boy band that rose to fame after winning the 2011 television talent show Superstar K 3. The group currently consists of members Kim Myung-hoon, Park Seung-il, Choi Do-won. 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.

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."

During Superstar K3, audiences responded particularly fondly to lead singer Lim's battle with stomach cancer.

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