Early Life and Education
Kevin Lilliana is an Indonesian model and beauty queen renowned for being crowned Miss International 2017. She was born in Bandung, Indonesia, on January 5, 1996, to a Sundanese mother, Lina Yulianti, and a Chinese-Indonesian father, Eddie Foe Junaedy.
She is the eldest among two siblings, with a younger brother Audi Danendra. As a bit of trivia, Kevin’s name came from her parents’ anticipation and preference of having a boy child as the eldest. However, not being sure what gender their expected child would be, they added the name Lilliana just for insurance.
Also similar to her younger brother’s name, where Audi in Indonesia is often tagged to female children. According to sources, Kevin’s name was based on a character in Home Alone, while Lilliana’s is a combination of her grandmother’s and mother’s name.
As a young, sophisticated, empowered woman motivated to pursue a career carved on her own, Lilliana went to the Maranatha Christian University in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia.

During the Finals Night of the Puteri Indonesia Lingkungan 2017, held at Java Convention Center, Kevin was also awarded “The Best Traditional Costume” and the first runner-up for “Miss Talent.” Garnering the title of Miss Puteri Indonesia, Lingkungan gave her the ticket to join the Miss International 2017 held in Tokyo, Japan.
