Recap / XO Kitty S 01 E 02 WTF

Go To

Brokenhearted upon learning that Dae has a girlfriend, Kitty attempts to book a flight the next morning back home, until she realizes that she does have a reason to study at Seoul other than having a boyfriend, which prompts her to stay. Meanwhile, it is revealed that Dae is faking a relationship with Yuri — the daughter of his father's boss — because the latter wants to hide her secret relationship, something that she knows her parents will not approve of. Although disappointed that her daughter is dating her chauffeur's son, Yuri's mother, Principal Lim, uses this to an advantage when her husband gets entangled in a scandal.

Tropes

  • Almost Kiss: Kitty and Dae nearly have their first kiss before Mr. Kim appears and whisks Dae away for his press conference with Mr. Han.
  • Bad Boss: A viral video of Mr. Han verbally abusing his employees goes viral, and Yuri's reaction implies that this is not the first time it happens.
  • The Beard: Yuri's parents decide to make her relationship with Dae official, with Dae becoming an apprentice at Mr. Han's company, as a way to save face regarding his viral meltdown video. This conveniently also enables Yuri to hide her attraction at her secret lover (implied to be Juliana).
  • Failed Attempt at Drama: Kitty when she storms off from the ballroom after learning that Dae and Yuri are together. She trips on the cupcake table twice, and, when walking through a corridor, hears footsteps behind her and assumes it's Dae, only for it to be a random teacher. Then she angrily asks why Dae is not following her begging for forgiveness, to the teacher's confusion.
  • Fake Relationship: What Dae's relationship with Yuri entails. Dae is very much still in love with Kitty, while Yuri has a lover that she hides from her parents.
  • Gender-Blender Name: It is revealed that Kitty was assigned to the boys' dorm room, which Dae theorizes because her middle name "Song" can be used as a boys' name in Korea.
  • Uptown Girl: Yuri, the daughter of a principal and a hotelier, strikes a fake relationship with Dae, the son of her chauffeur.
