Anna Cathcart is back to reprise her role as expert teen matchmaker Kitty Song-Covey. Joining her as series regulars are Anthony Keyvan (Love, Victor) as Q, Gia Kim as Yuri, Lee Sang-heon as Min-ho, Peter Thurnwald (Players) as Alex and Regan Aliyah (Club Mickey Mouse) as Juliana. While no further details were revealed about the rest of the cast and characters, our fingers are crossed, hoping that we’ve found Kitty’s male lead (or at least one of?) in Choi Min-yeong as Dae.

Does he look familiar? It’s because you might have recently seen him in the recently concluded Korean drama Twenty Five, Twenty One! He played Baek Yi-hyun, the younger brother of male lead Baek Yi-jin (Nam Joo-hyuk). While he only appeared in less than half of the K-drama’s episodes, Choi Min-yeong captured our hearts with his cute face and charming acting.

Set in Seoul, South Korea, XO, Kitty follows the titular character as she embarks on her own journey for romance. Leaving her home in the US, Kitty moves halfway across the world to reunite with her long-distance boyfriend. Despite her confidence in her matchmaking skills and her seemingly expansive knowledge about love, Kitty finds out that “relationships are a lot more complicated when it’s your own heart on the line.”

According to Netflix, the series has already started filming in Seoul. The series will have 10 episodes that are 30 minutes long.
While no release date has been announced yet, filming is expected to end on June 7, 2022. So we’re hoping we can watch the series before 2022 ends — or maybe just in time for next year’s Valentine’s Day!
