BIOGRAPHY

Miko Gallardo is a Filipino actor, commercial model and online video performer from Puerto Princesa in Palawan. He plays Sky in two of the records in this catalogue, three years apart and in the same continuity: My Day the Series (2020) and its sequel My Story the Series (2023), both made by Oxin Films.

He is a late starter by the standards of this list. He has said he entered the industry at twenty, while working in real estate, and his first significant exposure came in 2019 through the Bidaman segment of the noontime programme It’s Showtime. A film role as Jeremiah in the comedy Momshies! Ang Soul Mo’y Akin followed, and he had built a following through online video before any of it. He did his early schooling in Puerto Princesa before moving to Dubai.

My Day the Series was produced by Oxin Films with Prime Event Productions Philippines Foundation and directed by Xion Lim, and it put him opposite Aki Torres as Ace, a food business owner, with Gallardo as a pastry intern. The sequel premiered on the Oxin Films YouTube channel on 2 May 2023 and returns to Sky years later, working at a restaurant; Ace does not appear in it, and the relationship is written as having ended before the series begins. Teejay Marquez plays the new lead opposite him as the chef Win.

Away from performing he founded Art Talent Management, a management company set up to represent Palaweño performers, and has spoken about producing as well as acting, including plans for an online short film project drawing on local talent and Palawan settings. He remains listed on the Oxin Films artist roster.

Where this record is thin: no birth date, birth year or full legal name could be verified from any source read for this page, and no award record exists. His screen credits outside the two Oxin Films series are known by title rather than by year. Sources that do exist are interviews and regional press rather than a maintained filmography.

He is one of very few performers in this catalogue who responded to a small industry by starting a company inside it.

Gallardo came into acting from real estate at twenty, by way of a noontime television segment and an online following, and led My Day for a studio that was itself new. Rather than waiting for the next casting call, he set up Art Talent Management to represent performers from his own province, which is a different kind of career move from the ones most of these pages record.

Provincial talent has no obvious route into Manila productions. Agencies, auditions and the industry’s social networks are concentrated in one city, and a performer from Palawan has to relocate before anyone sees them. A management company based on the other side of that gap is an attempt to fix a structural problem rather than a personal one.

The catalogue records the company because it is professional work. What it does not record, here or anywhere, is anything about his life outside it.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Who is Miko Gallardo?

A Filipino actor, commercial model and online video performer from Puerto Princesa, Palawan. He plays Sky in My Day the Series (2020) and again in My Story the Series (2023).

Are the two records here connected?

Yes. My Story is a sequel to My Day, set years later, and he plays the same character in both. His co-lead changes: Aki Torres plays Ace in the first, and Teejay Marquez plays Win in the second.

Why does his original co-lead not appear in the sequel?

The sequel is written as though that relationship ended before it begins, and the character does not appear. That is a story decision, and this page records nothing about the people behind it.

How did he start acting?

He has said he entered the industry at twenty while working in real estate. His first wide exposure came in 2019 through the Bidaman segment of It’s Showtime, and he had an online following before that.

Does he do anything besides act?

Yes. He founded Art Talent Management, a company set up to represent performers from Palawan, and has spoken about producing as well as performing.

Why is his birth date blank?

Because no source giving one could be verified. This site leaves such fields empty rather than copying a date from a site that does not say where it came from.

This page covers Miko Gallardo’s acting and his work as a talent manager, from published professional sources, with one portrait; his personal life is excluded entirely and deliberately, and the disclaimer and corrections page explains how to request a change or a removal.
