It was in 2013 when KC Concepcion was last seen in a movie, and, three years later, had her last hosting stint in a major beauty pageant in the Philippines. “I took a step back from the mainstream and showbiz limelight for seven years now,” the multi-talented performer Maria Kristina Cassandra Concepcion, or simply KC, tells Tatler. This year, she returns to the big screen as the female lead of Asian Persuasion, a Hollywood indie movie with a pan-Asian production helmed by Tony and Grammy Award winner, Jhett Tolentino.
“I had just come from a TV series premiere in New York… I vlogged about this experience… of being around all the actors and everyone involved in production, which made me miss acting very much. When I came back to LA [where I was living at the time, in 2021] I decided to post an acting reel on Instagram,” KC narrates. Little did she know that it would be the start of another milestone in her career.
