“Xo, Kitty” is entertaining and cute. Nobody asked for it — but at least it’s got some charm. Go to Full Review Lauren Chval AV Club May 18, 2023
B-
The characters aren’t as lived in, the dialogue is frustratingly expositional, and our protagonist grates on everyone around her, including the audience. Go to Full Review Kayleigh Donaldson TheWrap May 18, 2023
You can see Han laying the groundwork for a richer, denser season two. She's juggling a lot of balls here, enough soapy drama to keep any teen (or young at heart viewer) hooked. Go to Full Review Srijoni Rudra Digital Mafia Talkies Aug 23, 2025
XO, Kitty has all the tropes to cater to the teenage crowd. But as someone who is well past her teenage years, I will not recommend the series to Netflix’s mature audience. Go to Full Review Alex Valencia Q+ Magazine Jul 16, 2024
Despite being a teen show, XO, Kitty offers an engaging and emotionally charged story. While it may not introduce entirely new concepts to its genre, the show's relatable characters and its vibrant South Korean setting make for a captivating watch.

Of course, there seems every good reason to spend time with these well-dressed and extra-ordinarily well-behaved boys and girls as they go about their fairly picture perfect lives set to the correct bubblegum music. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

R T @RT57318277 Jul 30, 2026 Starts a little slow but you end up LOVING the characters and it’s nice that it’s not rated r or has a ton of bad stuff See more Akanksha P @Popcorntalks11 Jun 12, 2026 I really enjoyed XO Kitty. It is a fun, lighthearted and surprisingly emotional series that goes beyond a typical teen romance. Kitty's journey of self-discovery, friendship and love feels relatable, while the vibrant setting in Seoul adds a fresh and exciting atmosphere. See more Starry N @Starry00 Apr 27, 2026 The dialogue and story-telling repulses me, tbh. The writing is a mixture of sickenly sweet and just plain cringe. But the actors are likeable. They did the best they could with the script they got. See more Shadow L @AlexKing121 Apr 7, 2026 Was fun and enjoyable See more Meri P @heyitsmeri Apr 6, 2026 it’s cringe but it’s fun. seeing kitty grow and thrive is amazing. it feels like it’s own story instead of relying too much on the movies See more Emma B. @emmahashobbies Mar 7, 2026 quickly became a comfort show of mine See more Read all reviews
