f(x)’s Sulli Celebrates Her Birthday with a Potential Fanclub Name for f(x)

Despite having debuted in 2009, fans of f(x) never had an official fanclub name given to them, that is until today, right in time for Sulli‘s birthday!

On March 29th, f(x)’s Sulli shared a celebratory photo of her birthday cake given to her by KARA‘s Jiyoung along with a special message for what seems to be f(x)’s fanclub, ‘Plus‘.

Along with the picture, she wrote, “Jiyoung, thanks for making me this acke… It was so touching, I love you~~~♥ Plus everyone, I’ll see you later~.” Seeing that as Sulli had romanized “Plus” in Korean, rather than using the Korean word for plus or the symbol “+”, and writing “All you Plus/Plus everyone”, it has lead fans to believe that they have finally been given an official name.

Fans commented, “Happy Birthday Unni!”, ”Plus??? Has it finally been decided ㅠㅠ”, “Plus??? Wow? Finally an official name! Sulli, happy birthday”.

Happy birthday to Sulli, and congratulations on your potential new fanclub name, Pluses!
