Sang Heon Lee just revealed his softer side while answering XO, Kitty fan questions. The 29-year-old actor sat down with co-star Anna Cathcart for BuzzFeed’s adorable puppy interview, airing just hours ago to celebrate Season 3. Here’s what they spilled about their roles, auditions, and real-life personalities.

The Cutest Interview Format You’ll Ever See

BuzzFeed Celeb created the perfect setup for this charming segment. Sang Heon Lee and Anna Cathcart sat surrounded by playful puppies while answering fan questions about XO, Kitty and their real lives. The result was adorable chaos. Both actors became completely overwhelmed by the cuteness, unable to resist playing with the furry crew while spilling tea. The puppies clearly stole much of the attention, but the talent still delivered genuine answers fans craved.

Auditions That Got Away: Near Misses and What Could Have Been

One of the most interesting revelations came when discussing roles that almost happened. Anna Cathcart came surprisingly close to starring in the live-action How to Train Your Dragon adaptation. She explained how the audition went and what ultimately didn’t work out. Sang Heon Lee also shared experiences from early auditions, reflecting on how different his career path might have become with just slightly different outcomes. These near-miss stories humanized both performers and showed the competitive, unpredictable nature of Hollywood casting.

Off-Screen Personalities Revealed

Beyond their XO, Kitty characters, both actors opened up about their real-life preferences and personalities. They discussed their love languages, revealing how they express and receive affection in relationships. The pair also shared their biggest relationship icks, those little deal-breakers that make them lose interest. Sang Heon Lee and Anna Cathcart displayed genuine chemistry as friends, laughing at each other’s answers and offering playful commentary. Their banter made clear why they work so well together on screen as Min Ho and Kitty.

XO, Kitty Season 3 Picks Up with Senior Year Drama

Kitty Song Covey enters her senior year at K.I.S.S. with an ambitious goal: completing her “senior sunset list.” This year, she’s juggling college decisions, her budding romance with Min Ho, and her signature matchmaking hobby. The new season promises complications, relationship growth, and the kind of romantic chaos fans love. Lana Condor‘s return as Lara Jean marks her first appearance since the final To All the Boys film, offering guidance to Kitty as she navigates teen romance and self-discovery.

Why This Puppy Interview Perfectly Captures the Cast’s Chemistry

The BuzzFeed format succeeded because it revealed genuine moments between Sang Heon Lee and Anna Cathcart off-camera. Puppies provided the perfect icebreaker, lowering guards and creating a relaxed environment for authentic conversation. The actors’ reactions to the animals felt unscripted and honest. Their ability to laugh together, answer thoughtfully despite distractions, and genuinely enjoy each other’s company explains why audiences connect with their on-screen dynamic. This isn’t manufactured chemistry, it’s the real friendship of talented performers who enjoy working together.
