How did Kitty's mom die in XO, Kitty?
In XO, Kitty season 2, Yuri puts Kitty in contact with her mother Jina so that Kitty can find out more about who Simon is and what he meant to Eve. Kitty then finds out that Simon wasn't Eve's lover but her cousin. She tells Q: "He's my grandma's sister's son. I'm not searching for my mom's first love. I'm searching for...my family."
Kitty then asks her grandmother about her sister on FaceTime but her her grandmother ends the call. However, Kitty finds her grandmother's sister of her own accord as well as Simon's daughter and she learns that her grandmother fell out with Simon's mother. Kitty then becomes determined to reconnect her family.
In her quest to resolve her family's issues, Kitty learns that Eve and Simon used to exchange letters in which they planned to bring their mothers back together. Eve even convinced her mother to return to South Korea but then passed away after slipping on a wet floor and hitting her head.
Simon also died soon afterwards and their mothers never reunited...until now that is.
In connecting with Simon's daughter Jiwon, Kitty manages to convince her grandmother to come to South Korea and reunite with her sister. The sisters share a tearful reunion where they realise they fell out over a misunderstanding.
Through her meddling ways, Kitty manages to fulfil her mother's wish of fixing her family's beef. Pretty legendary if you ask me.
