Wanting to see Dae and feel a connection to her mom, she convinces her dad to let her go. At the Seoul airport, she misses the bus to take her to the school and attempts to navigate on her own through public transit. Kitty is accidentally hit on the street by a car carrying Yuri, a popular student at KISS whose mom is the principal. Yuri offers her a ride to school, and Kitty later discovers the chauffeur is Dae's father. Yuri is in a secret relationship with a girl called Juliana and in order to hide it from her mom, she has Dae pose as her boyfriend in exchange for paying for his tuition for the semester. Kitty arrives at the school's welcome party and is thrilled to see Dae, but she leaves heartbroken when Yuri tells her Dae is her boyfriend.</td></tr><tr><th scope="row" rowspan="1">2</th><td>2</td><td rowspan="1">"WTF<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:28" href="#fn:28">28</a>"</td><td>Jennifer Arnold</td><td>Siobhan Vivian</td><td>May 18, 2023 (2023-5-18)</td></tr><tr><td colspan="7">Dae tries explaining the truth to Kitty, but she refuses to listen to him. However, due to the school mistaking her as a male student, she finds out her roommates are Dae and his two friends Q and Min Ho. She locks herself in her room wanting to leave the next morning, but she changes her mind after finding some places on campus where her mom posed in pictures. Yuri's dad, an important businessman, has a scandal after a video of him treating an employee badly goes viral, especially after Yuri posts a meme about it. Yuri's mom proposes a solution: she makes public Yuri and Dae's relationship as an opening for the company beginning to offer scholarships to low-income students during a press conference. Noticing how Dae refuses to hold Yuri's hand during the press conference, Kitty suspects the relationship is fake.</td></tr><tr><th scope="row" rowspan="1">3</th><td>3</td><td rowspan="1">"KISS<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:29" href="#fn:29">29</a>"</td><td>Jeff Chan</td><td>Alanna Bennett</td><td>May 18, 2023 (2023-5-18)</td></tr><tr><td colspan="7">At the first day of school at KISS, Kitty has been nicknamed the "Portland Stalker". Dae wants to tell Kitty the truth about his relationship with Yuri, but he is forced to sign an NDA and keep it a secret. Yuri tells him that she does not mind if Kitty knows the relationship is fake, as long as the reason for the relationship is not shared. A teacher tells Yuri's mom, the principal, that he suspects Dae wrote one of Yuri's assignments for her. Yuri's mom takes away Yuri's credit card, wrecking her plans for taking a trip with Juliana, who disappeared after she and Yuri were seen embracing by Juliana's housekeeper. Kitty discovers Q has a crush on a boy named Florian and helps them to become lab partners in chemistry class. Min Ho is rude to Kitty during class, and she publicizes his nickname "Poopy Baby" from a commercial he was in as a baby, leading to everyone making fun of him. Kitty is doing poorly in her classes, so she is assigned a tutor, who turns out to be Dae. Yuri tells Dae how Kitty publicized Min Ho's secret, causing him to be disappointed in Kitty and break up with her. She tells him to give her back her mom's necklace (which he was wearing), and he tells her that his relationship with Yuri is real. A baby hospital bracelet from 1993 falls from Kitty's mom's diary, making her realize that her mother had a baby when she was a teenager.</td></tr><tr><th scope="row" rowspan="1">4</th><td>4</td><td rowspan="1">"TGIF<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:30" href="#fn:30">30</a>"</td><td>Jeff Chan</td><td>Emily Kim</td><td>May 18, 2023 (2023-5-18)</td></tr><tr><td colspan="7">Kitty is moved to the girls' dorm after Min Ho reports the housing mistake. Her roommate is a girl who constantly plays video games and is extremely messy. Kitty tries approaching Dae as a friend, sharing everything she has discovered lately about her mother. She joins Q's outdoor activity club to have privacy with Dae, but Min Ho tells Yuri, and she joins as well. When taking a picture for Yuri, Kitty finds the hospital that was on the baby bracelet. She manages to get inside to the record room at the hospital and discovers she has a half-brother who was adopted by an Australian couple. She is caught by security, but Professor Finnerty comes to her rescue. They talk about his experience being adopted, and she suspects he might be her half-brother.

Yuri questions her mom about her and Kitty's mom, Eve Song, being friends at KISS, but Jina denies being close to Eve. Yuri's parents fight due to her father traveling so much for work, so she goes to Dae's home to celebrate the holiday there. A messenger gives her a package that Kitty sent to Dae, which contained the necklace she originally gave him, but Yuri doesn't deliver it to Dae. For the Chuseok dinner, Kitty prepares mashed potatoes, not knowing that lactose intolerance is common in Asians. She causes Min Ho to miss his date with a pop star called Lulu, but she arranges for their date to be rescheduled for the next night. Finnerty shares with Kitty that Professor Lee is his father, but that Lee doesn't know. Yuri arrives home where she sees her mother prepared food for Chuseok.

Kitty needs to pass all her classes, or she won't be allowed to stay at KISS. Everyone helps her study and agrees to participate in a talent show in which Lee offers extra credit for their lowest classes. Alex plans to leave KISS and never return, but Kitty tells him to stay since Yuri knows she has a half-brother and wants to meet him. Kitty has not told Yuri that Alex is her half-brother, since Alex asked her not to say anything to her. Min Ho and Dae suspect Florian is cheating on Q, but it turns out he cheated on the final exams. Yuri offers to teach Kitty a dance with fans to perform in the talent show, while Kitty becomes nervous around Yuri during the rehearsal. Before the performance, Jina approaches Yuri, telling her Alex is her half-brother, which shocks Yuri.

Kitty gives Jina music that she downloaded believing it was for her mom, and Jina gives her a letter that Eve wrote to her but she never responded to. Florian is ranked first in the exam results due to his cheating, jeopardizing Dae's scholarship, which requires him to be ranked first, putting Q in a hard position. Kitty breaks up with Dae, telling him he was the first boy she ever loved, and he tells her he loved her too. Yuri is at the airport waiting for Juliana, and Kitty is about to tell her how she feels, when Juliana appears, so Kitty leaves quietly. Yuri calls her mother and tells her it is a mistake to expel Kitty. Kitty reads her mom's letter on the plane and finds out her mother's first love was someone called Simon.

Thankfully, Kitty is not taking this second chance for granted. She is ready to relinquish her title as the chaotic queen and turn over a new leaf. Meanwhile, change is in the air at K.I.S.S. Professor Lee is now the Principal in the wake of Principal Lim’s scandal. The scandal also caused the school to lose a few students and donors, and Principal Lee has his work cut out for him.Thankfully, the full gang is back together, but there is some awkward tension between Kitty and Min-ho. Given how they left things in the last season, this is to be expected. The same goes for the fact that Dae is still in love with Kitty and blames himself for the awkwardness between Min-ho and Kitty.On the other hand, Yuri and Juliana are back together and surprise Kitty when they announce they will be sharing the dorm room. Kitty hoped to get a single room and seeing Yuri bring up all the feelings she had been bottling up. She realises she is in for a long-time nightmare, having to watch her crush, Yuri being all lovey-dovey with her girlfriend while they live together. Even the appearance of a fourth roommate, Stella, doesn’t help.With no choice left, Kitty asks Principal Lee to switch her room, as rooming with a friend will be a distraction to her new goal of concentrating on her studies. He promises to look into it. Kitty also asks him about one of her mom’s friends, Simon. Lim tells her that Simon might be the man that Eve followed to Seoul. He also mentions that Eve had a falling out with her parents, especially her mom, who didn’t want Eve to travel to Korea. This is a surprise to Kitty, who was under the impression that her mom always got along with her grandmother. On a personal front, Yuri is dealing with some heavy personal issues. Her parents are getting divorced and her mom is rejuvenating at a wellness retreat in Thailand. She invites the gang to a barbecue dinner to usher in the new semester. At first, Kitty wants to bail out on the barbecue, but her flimsy excuse fails to cut it. The only silver lining to her day is probably that she makes a new friend, Praveena, during the school assembly. Simultaneously, we have our heartthrob Min-ho, who is making an effort to avoid Kitty. He is also not pleased that his dad sent him a gift hamper without considering what he likes. He is certain that his dad wants to use him for a PR stunt and he might be right. It turns out that his dad is the new investor.Thanks to his donation to the Arts programme, he will be sticking around to launch a performing arts programme at the school. He is a big talent manager and everyone except Min-ho is excited to get a chance to be part of his new programme, which might give them a chance at stardom.During the barbecue dinner, Dae asks Kitty to talk to Min-ho, as he thinks he is responsible for their awkwardness. Min-ho acts like he is over Kitty, and it was never that serious. He claims he is over it but questions if there might be a chance that Kitty likes him since she smiled after his confession.As the dinner progresses, Yuri gives a touching speech about how glad she is she made a second family at K.I.S.S. The speech makes Kitty change her mind about switching rooms. She deludes herself to think she can be just friends with Yuri. When she confesses to Yuri that she is Bi, the latter is supportive and shares that her parents have not been supportive after she came out.After the barbecue dinner, Kitty video calls her grandmother. Unfortunately, Grandma hangs up on Kitty when she brings up Eve’s move to Korea. After the call with her grandmother, Kitty becomes more curious to find out what her grandmother is hiding.The episode ends with Stella expressing her interest in Min-ho, and Kitty shares his phone number with her. However, based on a different call that Stella gets, where she is called Esther, she might not be who she claims she is.Kitty plans to concentrate on her studies and learn more about her mom. She hopes to do some no-drama dating and put Yuri in her past. She takes Lara-Jean’s advice and writes a letter detailing her feelings for Yuri to help her get over the latter. She hopes the letter will be an anchor to stop her from making chaos again.</td></tr><tr><th scope="row" rowspan="1">12</th><td>2</td><td rowspan="1">"Never Been Kissed"</td><td>Katina Medina Mora</td><td>Siobhan Vivian</td><td>January 16, 2025 (2025-1-16)</td></tr><tr><td colspan="7">Kitty pursues a new love interest, Praveena, but the night ends terribly after she discovers Kitty has feelings for Yuri.

Kitty learns from Yina that Simon was not her mother's first love, but her cousin. Q is tricked by Jin, his tracking rival, and even though he manages to arrive in time (with Kitty pretending to faint in the track as a distraction), he loses to him. While talking to Q, Kitty mentions Yuri's and Juliana's relationship, which Lee overhears and tells them one of them has to move out from the dorm.

While the series had a high viewership on Netflix in more than 50 countries, it received minimal attention in South Korea, where the show takes place. A reason cited for this was that the global success of South Korean media led to the country's people not caring about its depiction in foreign productions. Another explanation was that thrillers and action shows are more popular than romance shows in South Korea.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:55" href="#fn:55">55</a>
