f(x) Fans Criticize Lack Of MAMA Awards 2014 Nominations

As online voting for the 2014 MAMA Awards continue, one fandom which seems particularly disappointed by this year's nominees is the fanbase for SM Entertainment's f(x).

In the 17 categories for the 2014 MAMA Awards, f(x) failed to earn any nominations, including for Best Female Group, Best Music Video and Best Dance Performance Female Group. Given f(x)'s comeback this summer with "Red Light," fans feel particularly outraged by this exclusion.

"f(x) has sole more than 80,000 copies of 'Red Light,' yet surprisingly, they're not nominated for any awards at MAMA," tweeted KBNye on Twitter.

"Even though f(x) is not nominated this year for MAMA, let's all support their co-artists," added AffxtionGlobal.

From record label SM Entertainment, some of f(x)'s nominated labelmates include Girls' Generation for Best Female Group, Super Junior for Best Male Group and EXO for Best Dance Performance Group.

After halting promotions for "Red Light," f(x) has been performing in concerts without Sulli. Recently, however, it's been reported that Sulli will be making her first public appearance since taking a hiatus from activities at the "Fashion King" press conference on October 31.

"Sulli plans to take part in the press and screening event on October 31," said a "Fashion King" rep according to allkpop.

"Her volition to participate in the event is strong as it is a major event that also provides the first opportunity to introduce 'Fashion King' and because of her affections for the movie. In addition to Sulli, other actors and the director plan on participating in the event."

Currently, it is still unclear when, if ever, Sulli will participate in promotions with f(x) again.

The 2014 MAMA Awards will take place at the AsiaWorld-Arena in Hong Kong on December 3.
