Voting for this year's Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) has just started and K-pop fans already started supporting their favorite idols. However, one particular group of fans doesn't seem to be happy with the lineup of nominated artists.

Members of f(x)'s official fanbase are disappointed after the female idol group did not make it to any of the 17 nominations for the 2014 MAMA Awards, KpopStars reports.

The idol group, which is under SM Entertainment, made a comeback last summer with "Red Light." However, f(x) was not nominated in any of the categories for "Best Female Group," "Best Music Video," and "Best Dance Performance Female Group."

Fans have expressed their outrage through social media.

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

Others, meanwhile, called fellow fans to support f(x)'s fellow artists. "Even though f(x) is not nominated this year for MAMA, let's all support their co-artists," wrote AffxtionGlobal.

Based on the current rankings, some of SM Entertainment's artists are strong contenders in major award categories, including Super Junior and EXO for "Best Male Group" and Girls' Generation for "Best Female Group." EXO is also nominated for "Best Dance Performance Male Group" for "Overdose." For "Best Music Video" category, "Holler" by Girls' Generation's sub-unit TaeTiSeo is also a contender.

Sulli's hiatus in the middle of "Red Light" promotions back in July has caused the remaining members to stop their activities. The idol was also absent in the recent activities of the group.

It was recently reported that Sulli will be making her first public appearance since her hiatus in the upcoming press conference of her movie "Fashion King." The said press conference will be held on October 31st.

A rep of the movie stated that the f(x) member plans to take part in the press and screening event

"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," added the rep.

Meanwhile, the 2014 MAMA Awards will be held in December 3 at the AsiaWorld-Arena in Hong Kong.
