Netflix has unveiled the premiere date for the sophomore season of the soapy YA series "XO, Kitty," based on characters from Jenny Han’s "To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before books."
The announcement video featured a few new faces viewers will meet in Season 2 — Audrey Huynh, Joshua Lee and Sasha Bhasin.
In "XO, Kitty", teen matchmaker Kitty Song Covey thinks she knows everything there is about love. But when she moves halfway across the world to reunite with her long-distance boyfriend, she soon realizes that relationships are a lot more complicated when your heart is on the line.
In Season 2 of the spinoff show, Kitty returns to KISS for her second semester in South Korea. Newly single and ready to start over, she aims not to meddle, matchmake, or cause any more drama. She might be open to some casual dating, but she soon finds a new task to commit to when a letter from her mother’s past sets her on another investigative journey around Seoul.
New faces will bring change to KISS, and secrets will test strong bonds and friendships. Season 1 was just the beginning of Kitty learning how complicated life, family and love can be.
Season 1 left off on a chaotic note with Kitty breaking up with her long-term and long-distance boyfriend (until she went to KISS) Dae (Minyeong Choi) because she has feelings for her enemy-turned-friend Yuri (Gia Kim). On the flight back home for the holidays, Min Ho (Sang Heon Lee) her frenemy of sorts also confessed that he had feelings for her.
Jessica O’Toole serves as showrunner, executive producer and writer for Season 2 of "XO, Kitty", which is executive produced by creator Jenny Han and ACE Entertainment’s Matt Kaplan.
More returning cast includes Anthony Keyvan as Q, Regan Aliyah as Juliana, Peter Thurnwald as Alex, Jocelyn Shelfo as Madison and Michael K. Lee as Professor Lee.
Philippe Lee will also play a new character this season, Mr. Moon.
The series, is produced by Awesomeness Studios, will return on January 16, 2025.
