Min Ho Moon’s entrance in XO, Kitty Season 1 is nothing short of iconic. The scene sets the tone for his sassy character, but it turns out that the show almost gave Kitty (Anna Cathcart) and Min Ho an entirely different meet-hate moment, according to star Sang Heon Lee.

In the version fans know and love in Season 1, Kitty sits at her LAX gate, waiting to board a flight to South Korea. She’s about to surprise her long-distance boyfriend, Dae (Choi Min-yeong), by revealing that she’s enrolled at his fancy boarding school, KISS. In a stroke of fate, Dae’s bestie, Min Ho, is waiting for the same plane as Kitty. As he heads over to board the flight, he knocks his bag into Kitty. She tries to strike up a conversation when she notices his KISS luggage tag, but Min Ho writes her off and pretends not to know English.
