US EditionBridgerton's New Series Is a Cinderalla Story: Yerin Ha
Australian actress Yerin Ha stars as Sophie Baek, a reimagined Cinderella lead in Bridgerton Season 4, bringing fresh representation and energy to the popular Netflix period drama.
- On January 29, 2026, Netflix released Bridgerton Season 4 Part 1, introducing Yerin Ha as Sophie Baek opposite Benedict Bridgerton, and Part 2 will drop on February 26, 2026.
- The adaptation draws on Julia Quinn's third book, An Offer from a Gentleman, with show producers altering Sophie Beckett's surname to Baek to reflect the lead actress's Korean background.
- Born into hardship, Sophie Baek is the illegitimate daughter of the Earl of Penwood whose mother dies in childbirth and whose resentful stepmother Araminta forces her into service, but household servants help her attend a masquerade ball where she meets Benedict.
- Ha described the experience as a personal 'Cinderella' moment, saying it taught her she had limited her dreams, and the role broadened Asian actresses' representation on Netflix.
- After episode four's cliffhanger, Ha teases Part two will show walls coming down, a bit more fight and a lot of tears, adding a one-word hint: 'bath' after the premiere yesterday.
