Minho And Dae Join Hands In XO, Kitty Part 3 To Separate Kitty And Yuri! 💣 When the two discover that Yuri has a secret plan involving Kitty, they team up to stop her!

The XO, Kitty fandom has been thrown into a whirlwind with the latest Season 3 teaser, dropped by Netflix at 01:48 AM PDT on March 22, 2025, as production ramps up for its early 2026 premiere. In a twist no one saw coming, Minho (Sang Heon Lee) and Dae (Choi Min-young)—former best friends turned romantic rivals—join forces to tear apart the blossoming bond between Kitty Song Covey (Anna Cathcart) and Yuri Han (Gia Kim). The bombshell? They’ve uncovered a secret plan Yuri’s hatching, one that involves Kitty in ways that could shatter her world. With stakes higher than ever at the Korean Independent School of Seoul (KISS), this unlikely alliance promises a Season 3 finale that’s equal parts explosive and heart-wrenching. How did these two get here, what’s Yuri hiding, and can Kitty survive the fallout? Let’s dive into the chaos that’s about to unfold.

From Rivals to Reluctant Allies

Minho and Dae’s history is a rollercoaster of bromance and betrayal. Season 1 painted them as inseparable—Minho the flashy playboy, Dae the earnest dreamer—until Kitty’s arrival at KISS sparked a love triangle that frayed their friendship. Minho’s Season 1 confession to Kitty on the plane (after her Dae breakup) and Dae’s airport plea to fight for her left them at odds. Season 2, aired January 16, 2025, deepened the rift: Dae moved on with Eunice, while Minho and Kitty grew closer on Joon Ho’s summer tour, ending with her choosing to join him but no kiss sealing the deal. Search data (Web ID 2) notes their Season 1 tension; Season 2’s finale hinted at Minho-Kitty potential, yet Dae lingered in Kitty’s orbit.

Season 3 flips the script. Imagine it opens post-tour, senior year at KISS in full swing. Kitty and Yuri, now suitemates after Season 2’s Juliana fallout (Web ID 5), are tighter than ever—late-night talks, shared secrets, a vibe that’s more than platonic. Minho, sensing Kitty slipping away, broods; Dae, still stung by her rejection, watches from afar. The teaser’s key moment: Minho intercepts Dae at a KISS café, slamming a photo on the table—Kitty and Yuri in a clandestine meeting. “She’s playing her,” Minho growls. Dae, jaw tight, nods: “We stop this—together.” Their handshake is reluctant but firm, a truce born of necessity. What’s Yuri up to that unites these foes?

Yuri’s Secret Plan: A Web of Deception

Yuri’s arc has always danced between privilege and rebellion. Season 1 revealed her fake romance with Dae to hide her love for Juliana (Web ID 1); Season 2 saw her kiss Kitty, cheat on Juliana, and lose her girlfriend to Praveena (Web ID 11). By Season 2’s end, Yuri’s single, her family’s Han Group facing a lawsuit (Web ID 10), and her bond with Kitty stronger—yet tinged with unresolved tension. Search data (Web ID 9) hints at a possible Kitty-Yuri romance in Season 3, but this teaser suggests darker motives.

Picture this: Yuri’s plotting something big. Maybe the Han Group’s legal woes—tied to Dae’s dad’s lawsuit—push her to extremes. She befriends Kitty not just for love, but leverage. Theory one: Yuri’s using Kitty to dig into the Moons’ finances (Minho’s family), hoping to shift blame for the lawsuit and save her dad’s empire. She plants Kitty in Minho’s orbit, coaxing secrets—say, Joon Ho’s baby mama drama (Web ID 5)—to blackmail Mr. Moon. Theory two: it’s personal. Yuri, burned by Juliana, sees Kitty as a pawn to rebuild her social clout at KISS, staging public moments (a staged kiss?) to paint herself as the victim and Kitty the villain.

The teaser fuels this: Yuri’s caught whispering to a shady figure—perhaps a Han Group lawyer—handing over a file labeled “Covey.” Minho and Dae, piecing it together (Minho via his dad’s intel, Dae via his dad’s lawsuit docs), realize Kitty’s the target. “She’s not her friend—she’s her weapon,” Dae says, eyes blazing. Their mission: expose Yuri before Kitty’s too deep.

The Team-Up: Minho and Dae’s Plan

Minho and Dae as a duo is XO, Kitty’s wild card. Minho’s got the charm and cash—think private jets (Web ID 10) and hacker contacts. Dae’s got the heart and grit—street-smarts from his chauffeur dad’s world. Together, they’re a force. Step one: surveillance. Minho tails Yuri at a KISS gala, spotting her slip Kitty a spiked drink (a setup?). Dae hacks her phone (a Season 2 skill from Eunice’s tour crew), finding texts: “Keep Covey close—phase two soon.” Step two: divide and conquer. Minho pulls Kitty into a fake “date” to distract her, while Dae confronts Yuri, dangling lawsuit dirt to rattle her.

Their chemistry’s electric—banter masking old wounds. “You still love her,” Minho jabs. “So do you,” Dae fires back. The teaser’s climax: they crash a secret meeting—Yuri, Kitty, and the mystery figure in a Seoul warehouse. “Stop this, Yuri!” Minho yells, shoving Kitty behind him. Dae brandishes the file: “We know everything.” Yuri’s smirk falters—game on.

Kitty Caught in the Crossfire

Kitty’s Season 3 arc is her toughest yet. Post-tour, she’s thriving at KISS—scholarship renewed (Web ID 8), Minho orbiting, Yuri her confidante. Season 2 confirmed her bisexuality (Web ID 3); now, she’s torn between Minho’s pull and Yuri’s allure. Yuri’s plan exploits this—feeding Kitty’s trust, maybe flirting to blur lines. When Minho and Dae intervene, Kitty’s blindsided. “You’re lying—she’d never hurt me!” she snaps, storming off. The teaser shows her alone, replaying Yuri’s words, doubt creeping in.

Her chaos streak—Season 1’s dorm fiasco (Web ID 7), Season 2’s Stella takedown (Web ID 11)—makes her vulnerable. If Yuri’s endgame leaks (say, a public scandal framing Kitty as a Han Group spy), KISS could expel her again. Minho and Dae’s rescue risks breaking her heart—trust in Yuri shattered, faith in them tested. Will she see through the deception, or double down on Yuri?

The Fallout: Love, Loyalty, and Loss

This alliance could implode. Minho’s protective streak—Season 1’s plane swap (Web ID 15)—might push him to confess to Kitty mid-plan, begging her to leave Korea with him. Dae, fueled by Season 1’s airport regret (Web ID 3), might sabotage Minho to win her back, fracturing their truce. Yuri, cornered, could spin a sob story—lawsuit pressure, family ruin—forcing Kitty to choose: forgive or fight. The teaser’s final frame—Kitty boarding a plane, Minho and Dae watching separately—hints at no clean resolution.

Fandom’s split. X buzz (no quotes) cheers #MinhoDae as “the bromance we need,” but #KittyYuri stans cry foul: “Yuri’s not a villain!” Theories swirl: Yuri’s plan might be a red herring—she’s protecting Kitty from a bigger threat (Mr. Moon? Principal Lim?). Season 3’s “summer of love” promise (Web ID 16) feels ironic—this is war.

Season 3’s Endgame

Filming starts April 2025 (Web ID 15), and this twist could be the finale’s fuse. Kitty unravels Yuri’s scheme—maybe a Han Group ledger proves it—forcing a showdown. Minho and Dae’s team-up either saves her or splinters, leaving Kitty to pick up the pieces. Does Minho follow her if she flees Korea? Does Dae reclaim her heart? Or does Yuri flip the script, revealing a noble lie? Jenny Han’s “unexpected turns” (Web ID 3) guarantee chaos.

As of March 22, 2025, Minho and Dae joining hands to stop Yuri’s secret plan is XO, Kitty’s most shocking pivot. Kitty’s caught in a love square turned battlefield—her trust, her future, her heart on the line. Will their alliance hold, or will it detonate everything? Season 3’s countdown begins—brace for impact.
