Myriam Hernández began her career in the late 1980s. Her first track was "Ay Amor." At age 11 she debuted on the program "Generación joven," followed soon after by "La Pandilla," both part of Televisión Nacional de Chile. Based on this she was offered a role in the soap opera "De cara al mañana," where she appeared in five episodes. The following year, as a solo artist, she entered into the "Ranking Juvenil" (Juvenile Ranking) of Canal 13's "Sábados Gigantes" program, hosted by Don Francisco. At 18 she was named Artista Revelación (Best New Artist) by the Chilean press before having even recorded a single album. In Chile, in October 1988, Hernández released her first album under record label EMI entitled "Myriam Hernández". In Chile the record got her the Disco de Oro, and would later go quadruple platinum in - among other countries - the United States, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, and Panama. Thus began her international career. Two tracks on this album, "Ay Amor" (Oh My Love) and "El Hombre que Yo Amo" (The Man I Love), spent months at the top of music charts in Latin America and the U.S. In February 1989 she was a guest artist and jury member at the Festival de Viña del Mar.
