XO, Kitty is an American romantic comedy drama television series created by Jenny Han for Netflix that premiered on May 18, 2023.
Anna Cathcart reprises the title role as Kitty Song Covey, a high school student who goes on her own journey to find true love.
The series also stars Gia Kim, Sang Heon Lee, Choi Min-young and Anthony Keyvan.
During the barbecue dinner, Dae asks Kitty to talk to Min-ho, as he thinks he is responsible for their awkwardness.
The episode ends with Stella expressing her interest in Min-ho, and Kitty shares his phone number with her.
In March 2021, it was announced that a series spin-off to To All the Boys was in development, with each episode being a half-hour romantic comedy.

The website's critics consensus reads, "A modest and sweet extension of all the films that fans have loved before, XO, Kitty aims straight for the heart and finds its mark.
"[24] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned a score of 68 out of 100 based on eight critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".
The website's critics consensus reads, "Returning with improved form, XO Kitty's second season injects a lovely mix of fun and memorable characters into its exceedingly saccharine proceedings.
[27] While the series had a high viewership on Netflix in more than 50 countries, it received minimal attention in South Korea, where the show takes place.
A reason cited for this was that the global success of South Korean media led to the country's people not caring about its depiction in foreign productions.
