Exo Next Door became one of the most popular web series in Korea with 50 million views; this led to CJ E&M re-editing it into a film version, which was then sold to overseas buyers at the 68th Cannes Film Market.[7]
Plot
[edit]Ji Yeon-hee (Moon Ka-young) is an extremely shy, introverted 23-year-old woman with zero dating experience and a tendency to blush when talking to someone she likes. One day, four young men move into the house right next door to Yeon-hee's home, and to her surprise, they turn out to be Chanyeol (Park Chanyeol), D.O. (Doh Kyung-soo), Baekhyun (Byun Baekhyun), and Sehun (Oh Sehun) from her favorite boy band Exo, who are looking to lie low for a while. They hire her to clean their house part-time during the winter vacation, and that's when Yeon-hee finds out that Chanyeol is her long lost childhood friend and crush "Chan", and that he is the grandson of the owner of the house. As the story goes on, Yeon-hee becomes involved in a love triangle with Chanyeol and D.O.[8]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
