Who is Yerin Ha? (Sophie Beckett/Baek’s actress)

Yerin Ha is the actress playing Sophie in Bridgerton Season 4 — the woman at the center of Benedict Bridgerton’s long-awaited love story.

Yerin Ha: quick facts

  • Role in Bridgerton Season 4: Sophie Baek (Sophie Beckett in the books)
  • Known for: Halo (as Kwan Ha)
  • Also appears in: Dune: Prophecy (prequel series)
  • Background: Korean-Australian actress
Why she’s a big deal for Season 4: Sophie is not just “the new girl.” She’s the emotional engine of the Cinderella-meets-Regency storyline — a character defined by survival, sharp instincts, and the risk of being seen.

Why Bridgerton casting searches spike

Every season, the show introduces a new romantic lead — and fans immediately start searching: “Who plays ___?” and “Where have I seen them before?”

Who is Sophie Beckett/Baek in Bridgerton Season 4?

Sophie is the woman Benedict meets at Violet Bridgerton’s masquerade ball — the mysterious “Lady in Silver” who vanishes after a single unforgettable night, leaving Benedict with more questions than answers.

In the Netflix adaptation, Sophie is introduced as a maid with a hidden past. That “upstairs/downstairs” tension is a huge part of what makes the romance feel dangerous: Benedict is a Bridgerton, and Sophie has everything to lose.

Book vs. show naming (why you’re seeing two names)

If you’re coming from Julia Quinn’s novels, you’ll recognize her as Sophie Beckett. If you’re following Netflix’s show, she is Sophie Baek. Same core character. Same iconic masquerade setup. Different on-screen surname.

Why did Netflix change “Sophie Beckett” to “Sophie Baek”?

Netflix’s official coverage explains that Sophie’s surname was updated to Baek in collaboration with the production team as a way to align the character’s name with Yerin Ha’s Korean heritage (while keeping the alliterative “B” sound that fits the Bridgerton world).

The bigger storytelling point: the name change doesn’t rewrite Sophie’s role in the romance. The heart of “Benophie” is still the same: a love story where class, identity, and visibility collide.
