The highly anticipated return of “XO, Kitty” for its second season has fans eagerly tuning in, and one of the fun elements if you’re a K-pop fan of this new chapter is undoubtedly its soundtrack.
Each episode is enhanced by a carefully curated selection of K-pop songs that not only elevate the viewing experience but also resonate with the show’s themes of love, friendship, self-discovery and a little bit of drama-ma-ma-ma.
As the season unfolds, viewers are treated to a diverse musical talent from various K-pop groups – which, of course, makes the series feel even more unexpected and vibrant. The show leaves fans with some familiar tunes that linger long after the credits roll, and definitely a pride for the fans of these K-pop groups.
A highlight of the season is undoubtedly Enhypen’s “XO (Only If You Say Yes),” which was teased in the lead-up to the premiere.
This track perfectly encapsulates the spirit of the show and serves as a fitting anthem for the season finale, where it plays during that sequence.
In addition to Enhypen, several girl groups have made their mark on the OST. IVE’s “I Am” kicks off the very first episode, setting the tone for the season, while their later track “Off the Record” adds depth to subsequent episodes.
Le Sserafim also contributes with “We Got So Much,” also in Episode 1, and “Fearless” in Episode 3.
CIGNATURE’s “Nun Nu Nan Na” plays during al road trip scene in Episode 4, which added a fun and upbeat vibe to the friend group’s ski resort getaway.
The drama continues with Aespa’s “Drama” and CRAVITY’s “Over & Over.” Additionally, Eunice also had her very own rendition of “Super Shy” by NewJeans during a school competition and, spoiler alert, eventually won the whole thing.
Moreover, Dae also had his own K-pop spotlight with “Seven” by Jung Kook, which he came in as first runner-up, while G-IDLE’s English track “I Do” makes an appearance in Episode 1.
