In Xo, Kitty, teen matchmaker Kitty Song Covey (Anna Cathcart) sets out on her very own adventure of romance and independence at the Korean Independent School of Seoul. Yes, she’s ready to kick her love story with long distance boyfriend Dae (Minyeong Choi) into high gear and connect to the memory of her late mother Eve, who also attended Kiss. But Kitty also has a major problem: She’s tired of living in the shadow of her older sisters Lara Jean (Lana Condor) and Margot (Janel Parrish).
After all, Lara Jean’s high school experience was so exciting it birthed three whole rom-coms — the To All the Boys movie franchise, which introduced Kitty as a precocious and meddlesome tween.

The world of teen rom-com is a gift that keeps giving and giving, even when we’re not really asking for it. I could say it feels like the genre has become oversaturated, but that would feel like an understatement because of the rate at which Ott platforms keep churning these out. But as I complain, I’m reminded of the comfort that some of these shows provide. While high school dramas can focus on many different subjects, most of the content revolves around teen romance.

"Xo, Kitty" follows Kitty Song Covey (Anna Cathcart) as she travels to South Korea in order to reconnect with a lost love. By the sound of things, the "Xo, Kitty" cast quickly developed a close bond - though two of the cast members are actually family members, which was apparently a big surprise for everyone.
It turns out that Gia Kim and Sang Heon Lee, who play Yuri and Min Ho, are actually real-life siblings. In an interview with Teen Vogue, fellow star Minyeong Choi opened up about how the cast found out they were related. "I'm not sure if I'm allowed to say this, but . . . did you know that Gia [Kim, who plays Yuri] and Sang Heon are siblings in real life?" Choi said of the "mind-blowing" revelation. He went on to reveal that the news had come to light when Lee asked if he could add his sister to a cast group text.

Kitty Song Covey's fascinating love life has nothing on the "Xo, Kitty" cast's real-life friendships. According to Anna Cathcart, who has portrayed Kitty on screen since the first "To All the Boys I've Loved Before" movie made its Netflix debut in 2018, the bond she shares with her castmates has made her journey as the character all the more worthwhile. "I am truly so grateful for all of them because they made such a huge difference," she tells Popsugar. "It's honestly what makes the experience at the end: the people that you meet and the friendships that you make."
On screen, Cathcart and her costars - Gia Kim, Min-young Choi, Sang Heon Lee, Anthony Keyvan, and Jocelyn Shelfo - are inseparable. Even when their characters get on each other's nerves or find themselves entangled in a complicated love triangle (read: love square), they can't help but stay involved in each other's lives.

“Love in Taipei,” the film adaptation of Abigail Hing Wen’s New York Times bestseller “Loveboat, Taipei,” has been acquired by Paramount+ and will premiere in the U.S. this summer, the streamer announced Monday. An official release date has not yet been set.
In the novel, a young American woman is sent by her parents to a cultural immersion program in Taipei – inspired by an actual program attended by thousands of Chinese and Taiwanese diaspora youth – where she begins a new journey of self-discovery and romance. The “Loveboat” isn’t an actual ship, and is not to be confused with the classic TV series “The Love Boat.”
Ashley Liao (“Fresh Off the Boat”) plays Ever Wong, whose summer takes an unexpected turn when her parents surprise her with a trip to Taipei for a cultural immersion program. Ever is surprised to discover that she hasn’t signed up for homework and history lessons,...

Although “Xo, Kitty” doesn’t include cameos from Lana Condor’s Lara Jean or Janel Parrish’s Margot as Kitty’s (Anna Cathcart) older sisters, the show still explores sibling relationships.
Kitty’s chemistry teacher Alex Finnerty (Peter Thurnwald) is Korean, but he was adopted by Australians. Her sisterly instincts kick in when she finds a hospital bracelet from a birth center with her mother’s name on it. She tracks down the baby’s records and, upon learning it was adopted by Australians, immediately assumes it’s Alex.
“We see her get very passionate about it and jump to conclusions just because she wants it to be real and she wants her theories to be accurate,” Anna Cathcart told TheWrap. “It brings out a different side of her, and [Alex] acts like a big brother — even if we find out he’s not really her brother, he still is that...

"Xo, Kitty" - the sequel series to the "To All the Boys I Loved Before" films - follows Kitty (Anna Cathcart) as she spends her junior year of high school in South Korea, getting into all sorts of hijinks, romantic and otherwise. Naturally, the show's soundtrack features some iconic K-pop tracks, and the cast opened up to Popsugar about which songs are their personal favorites.
Cathcart says "Zoom" by Jessi "is a song that we as a cast love so much." She explains, "It is, like, the hypest song ever. It's definitely a blast-in-the-car song." Jessi - who's more of a K-rap star than K-pop - released the song in 2022.
Gia Kim, who plays Yuri, then says, "BigBang is, for me, my height of K-pop obsession." The K-pop group debuted in 2006, went on hiatus in 2018, and returned in 2022. The "Xo, Kitty" star also shares that she's a big fan of...

Some of the greatest movies and TV shows have come from books, whether they be adult fiction, historical fiction, romance or Young Adult fantasy or dystopia. Without their authors, these adaptations — and whole worlds — would certainly not exist, so it only makes sense that they should get a chance to appear on screen in their stories, even for a moment.
Netflix has featured many author cameos in young adult adaptations of films or shows — from Soman Chainani in “The School for Good and Evil” to Leigh Bardugo in the first season of “Shadow and Bone.” Jenny Han has appeared in her “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before” films, as well as the first season of “The Summer I Turned Pretty” on Prime Video. She also appears in “Xo, Kitty,” her newest series starring Anna Cathcart. Judy Blume makes an iconic appearance in the theatrical release of “Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret.

Kitty (Anna Cathcart), who first appeared in the film adaptation of Jenny Han’s “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before” (2018), sets off on her own adventures to Kiss in the spinoff show “Xo, Kitty” for two reasons: her mom went there and she’s dating Dae long-distance.

Memorialized by Anna Cathcart in the 2018 film version of the book — which spawned two sequels and launched the careers of Lana Condor and Noah Centineo, who played the leads — Kitty often serves as the comic relief, offsetting Lara Jean’s careful romantic idealism.

Kitty Song Covey (Anna Cathcart) was a fan favourite in the To All The Boys I Loved Before series as her matchmaking skills set up the still ongoing romance between her sister Lara-Jean (Lana Condor) and Peter Kavinsky (Noah Centineo). The new spin-off series Xo, Kitty sees the teenager attempt to find her own romantic happy ending when she travels to Korea to reunite with her long-distance boyfriend Dae (Minyeong Choi) who attends the Korean International School of Seoul, or Kiss for short. Kitty also attends the school to feel closer to her late mother, who also attended Kiss when she was Kitty’s age.
In 10 episodes, the love-filled journey Kitty thought she was getting is not as straightforward as she expected. Taking inspiration from K-Dramas, the first episode sees Dae and Kitty break up as he’s in a new, fake relationship with Yuri.

The new Netflix series “Xo, Kitty” takes some notes from the “To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before” film trilogy, but it also branches out for youngest sister Kitty’s (Anna Cathcart) adventures to Korea. After getting the same scholarship that her mom got to study abroad at the Korean Independent School of Seoul, Kitty jets out to surprise her long-distance boyfriend Dae (Minyeong Choi), who happens to attend Kiss. Things get a bit more complicated when Yuri Han (Gia Kim) dreams up a fake dating scheme to distract her mother from other parts of her life, and she chooses Dae to be her fake boyfriend.

Katherine Song Covey (Anna Cathcart), aka Kitty, is a Gen Z dream. Since she was introduced six years ago in the “To All The Boys I Loved Before” trilogy, the precocious younger sister to Laura Jean (Lana Condor) and Margot (Janel Parrish) has walked to her own beat. Steadfast, determined and slightly nosey, Kitty’s incessant meddling helped connect Lj to her long-term love Peter (Noah Centineo). With the new spinoff TV series, “Xo, Kitty,” the youngest Covey sister is stepping into the spotlight and going after the life she feels she deserves, even if that means getting her heart broken in the process.
From the minds of “To All The Boys” novelist Jenny Han and “Glow” scribe Sascha Rothchild, the series opens in the final hazy days of a Portland summer. Kitty has grown frustrated with the distance in her long-term relationship with Dae (Choi Min-yeong), whom she met...
