Bridgerton enthusiasts will be eager to discover more about actress Yerin Ha as she steps into the role of Sophie Baek in the beloved period drama.
Netflix has just unveiled the release dates for the eagerly awaited fourth season of the smash-hit Regency romance, set to arrive in two instalments.
Drawing from Julia Quinn's third novel in the collection, An Offer from a Gentleman, she emerges as an enigmatic romantic prospect for Benedict Bridgerton (portrayed by Luke Thompson).
But what details have emerged about her character in season four thus far, where might viewers recognise Ha from previously and what's happening in her personal life beyond the spotlight?
Let's delve deeper before Bridgerton makes its comeback this January, reports the Mirror.
Who is Sophie Baek?
Sophie first appears as the puzzling Lady in Silver at a masked ball hosted by Benedict's mother Violet Bridgerton (Ruth Gemmell).
Despite his unwillingness to mirror his brothers and sisters by settling into matrimony, Benedict finds himself utterly captivated and the pair experience an enchanting evening together.
Nevertheless, Sophie is concealing her genuine identity as she's merely a servant for the ton's fresh arrival Lady Araminta Gun (Katie Leung) and her two daughters, Rosamund (Michelle Mao) and Posy Li (Isabella Wei).
Speaking about the character to Tudum, Ha remarked: "What drew me to Sophie was that she immediately has obstacles - something that she constantly has to overcome.
"Whether it's this battle around social status or trying to hide her feelings from Benedict."
Who is Yerin Ha?
Yerin Ha, an Australian actress of South Korean descent, was born in Sydney to parents hailing from South Korea, with her grandmother being the renowned actress Son Sook.
She honed her acting skills for three years at Seoul's Kaywon High School of Arts before furthering her studies at the National Institute of Dramatic Art in Sydney.
Ha hails from a family steeped in performance arts, though she remains tight-lipped about her personal life, keeping any romantic relationships away from the public gaze.
However, viewers may recognise her from her leading roles in Australian series such as Troppo, Bad Behaviour and The Survivors.
She has also graced the screen as Kwan Ha in Paramount+'s sci-fi video game series Halo and made a cameo in Dune: Prophecy.
Her sole film credit to date is the 2022 Australian psychological horror flick Sissy, headlined by The Bold Type and Apple Cider Vinegar star Aisha Dee.
Having secured a lead role in the eagerly awaited next season of Bridgerton, audiences can anticipate seeing much more of this rising talent in the future.
Bridgerton season 4, part 1 will be released on 29th January, 2026. Part 2 drops on 26th February on Netflix.
