We propose that the X(3872) has the charmonium and the DD*-bar hadronic molecule hybrid structure. We study the structure of the X(3872) using the schematic model with the separable interaction. The strengths of the couplings between the charmonium state and the hadronic molecule states are determined so as to reproduce the observed mass of the the X(3872). The isospin symmetry breaking is introduced by the mass differences of the neutral and charged D mesons. The obtained structure of the X(3872) is about 9% of cc-bar charmonium, 75% of the isoscalar DD*-bar molecule and 16percent; of the isovector DD*-bar molecule which explains observed properties of the X(3872) well.
