Who Does Kitty End Up With at End of 'XO, Kitty' Season 3? Finale Explained

Season 3 of XO, Kitty showed Kitty making a choice about who she wanted to be with after her past love triangle drama.

During the newest season, which premiered on Thursday, April 2, Kitty (Anna Cathcart) and Min-ho (Sang Heon Lee) faced ups and downs despite acknowledging their feelings for each other. This led to them nearly not ending up together before Min-ho made a grand gesture in the season 3 finale.

Kitty was on her way home back to Portland, Oregon, as Min-ho tried to chase her down, which felt reminiscent of creator Jenny Han‘s other hit series The Summer I Turned Pretty. Min-ho missed Kitty’s train but was able to send her the song he wrote for her. She listened to it right before they reunited — and finally became a couple.

The final scene showed Kitty and Min-ho on their way back to Portland together as they discussed him meeting the rest of her family. It served as a parallel to her sister Lara Jean (Lana Condor) deciding to make her relationship with Peter (Noah Centineo) work, which she discussed with Kitty earlier in the finale.

XO, Kitty has previously explored Kitty’s personal life after she arrived at Korean Independent School of Seoul (KISS) to reunite with long-distance boyfriend Dae (Choi Min-yeong). She later developed feelings for Yuri (Gia Kim) while also having surprising banter with Min-ho.

“It’s definitely Kitty’s heart at the end of the day that is what I want to see succeed. I just want her to follow what feels right for her,” Cathcart exclusively told Us Weekly in March 2024. “And if she’s doing that, I definitely think I’ll be supportive of that.”

Cathcart said she enjoyed getting to see Kitty explore her feelings, adding, “I’ve definitely brought up a few times — even just in conversation with writers — and with different people on the show about where this could go. I think Kitty doesn’t always need to be with [a] person either. I think Kitty’s story is kind of a love letter to the world.”

The actress praised XO, Kitty for allowing Kitty’s story to evolve.

“She’s so excited about so many things and learning about her family and helping out her friends and discovering just what the world has to offer,” Cathcart continued. “It’s not just a love story with another partner necessarily. I think a lot of her love comes from a lot of different directions.”

Cathcart added: “I’m hoping that Kitty just continues letting herself follow her heart. I think that was a really big thing that she was learning all throughout season 1. If she continues to do what feels right for her and be brave in exploring what that might be and who she might be, I really want to see that journey continue and I hope fans do too. So that’s the direction that I’m definitely hoping we head down.”

XO, Kitty is currently streaming on Netflix.
