Netflix’s XO, Kitty, which is a To All the Boys spin-off series, sees Anna Cathcart reprising her role as Kitty Song Covey who we were first introduced to in the Netflix film franchise To All the Boys (2018-2021). The series premiered on May 18 and follows 16 year old Kitty as she transfers to the Korean Independent School of Seoul (KISS) in Seoul, South Korea for her junior year of high school, which is the same age her late mother also attended that very same school. Kitty takes this as an opportunity to learn more about her mother and Korean culture, while also as a way to reconnect with her long distance Korean boyfriend, Dae.
The series is clearly a hit; it debuted on the English TV List with 72.1M hours viewed, and the cast of XO, Kitty are exploding on social media. Actor Sang Heon Lee, who plays Min Ho, made his acting debut with XO, Kitty and reached 1 million followers on Instagram in just four days after the series premiered (he currently has over 2 million followers). His real life sister, Gia Kim, who plays Yuri, is currently at more than half a million Instagram followers.
