‘Bridgerton’ Season 4 Female Lead, Yerin Ha, Speaks Out About Her New Role As Sophie Baek

Buy Me A Coffee

Bridgerton is about to drop Season 4 like it’s hot! Netflix, the ultimate dealer of Regency-era drama, just gave us a sneak peek of the next leading lady. Drumroll please… meet Sophie Baek, played by Yerin Ha, who you might know from Dune: Prophecy, or as “that actress who somehow looks like she’s both solving world hunger and stealing your last slice of cake.”

Sophie Baek: The Maid with a Masquerade Plan

Sophie Baek isnโ€™t just your average maid. Nope. Sheโ€™s been serving tea and sass to the most uptight employer in all of Londonโ€™s high society, aka “the ton” (fancy talk for “fancy people”). But Sophieโ€™s got brains, brawn, and apparently a killer disguise kit because things are about to change BIG TIME. Picture this: she sneaks into Violet Bridgerton’s masquerade ball (mask on, attitude up), bumps into Benedict Bridgerton, and BOOMโ€”chemistry like a Bunsen burner at full blast.

In a recent chat with Tudum (which is a word you make when you canโ€™t remember how to spell โ€œinterviewโ€), Yerin Ha spilled the tea on why sheโ€™s vibing with Sophie: โ€œSophieโ€™s life is a hot mess from the get-go. Sheโ€™s fighting social class, hiding feelings from Benedict, and juggling a secret identity. You know, just your average Tuesday.โ€ Honestly, who wouldnโ€™t want to play a character whoโ€™s one part Cinderella, one part secret agent, and all parts relatable?

Mask On, Mask Off: Itโ€™s Not Just About the Party

Apparently, the mask isnโ€™t just a way to look mysterious while sipping punch. Yerin revealed that Sophieโ€™s emotional mask game is strong, like, Olympic level. โ€œEvery audition scene I had involved her playing โ€˜Will I cry? Will I smirk? Oh wait, I’m wearing a mask, so who knows?!โ€™โ€ she laughed. Basically, weโ€™re getting an emotional masquerade and an actual masqueradeโ€”double the drama, double the popcorn.

A Korean Twist (with Extra Spice)

Now, letโ€™s talk names. In the original Julia Quinn books, Sophieโ€™s last name is Beckett, but they gave it a spicy cultural twist for the show. Since Yerin Ha is of Korean descent, they wanted to honor that with a fitting surname. Enter: Sophie Baek. Yerin explains, โ€œYour name is your intro to the world. It’s like your personal tagline, but cooler. So when they made Sophieโ€™s name match my culture, it was like getting a perfectly tailored suitโ€”empowering and extremely flattering.โ€

And guess what? The showrunner, Jess Brownell, even asked Yerin about Korean last names starting with “B” to make sure it was just right. Howโ€™s that for attention to detail?

Alright, letโ€™s get down to the juicy bits. Bridgerton Season 4 is all about the artsy, second son Benedict. You know, the guy whoโ€™s been strolling around the family estate in flowy shirts, casually painting, while his brothers tied the knot. Heโ€™s not about that married life… until a Lady in Silver (aka Sophie) pops up at the masquerade ball, and suddenly, heโ€™s seeing hearts instead of paint splatters.

Will Benedict finally settle down, or will he keep running from commitment like itโ€™s a poorly written sonnet? Youโ€™ll just have to wait and see.

So, grab your corsets and cravats, because Season 4 of Bridgerton promises enough scandal, romance, and masked intrigue to make you wish you had your own invitation to the ball. Now excuse me while I go practice my swooning technique.
