When Anna Cathcart was cast as Kitty Song Covey in To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before, she had no idea how transformative the role would be. Over the years, her character evolved from a matchmaker meddling in her sister’s love life to the lead of her own spin-off, XO, Kitty.

Cathcart reflects on her journey in a Netflix Tudum interview published on January 12, 2025, stating,

"I truly had no idea how much [Kitty] was going to change my life."

She initially saw the role as a one-off romance movie but soon realized its impact on her career and personal growth.

In XO, Kitty season 2, Kitty returns to the Korean Independent School of Seoul (KISS) following her dramatic first semester, determined to reinvent herself. The storyline picks up with Kitty navigating her breakup with Dae (Minyeong Choi), her growing feelings for Yuri (Gia Kim), and the love confession from Min Ho (Sang Heon Lee).

Adding to the intrigue, Kitty delves deeper into the mystery of Simon, mentioned in her late mother’s letters, and learns more about her mother's time at KISS. XO, Kitty season 2 also brings in new dynamics with Juliana (Regan Aliyah), Yuri’s girlfriend and Kitty’s suitemate, creating a complex living situation.

Meanwhile, Q (Anthony Keyvan) remains Kitty’s steadfast confidant, and other characters, such as Stella (Audrey Huynh) and Min Ho, add depth to the narrative. XO, Kitty season 2 weaves themes of friendship, identity, and romance against the backdrop of Seoul, making it a season filled with heartfelt moments and dramatic twists.

Season 2 of XO, Kitty explores themes of growth, relationships, and cultural exploration, blending drama, romance, and humor. The soundtrack complements key moments in the story. The show is available for streaming on Netflix.
